Abstract

Synthetic organic chemistry is experiencing a renaissance by the use of electrochemical reactions. Since electron is the only reagent involved, the production of waste can be avoided efficiently and stoichiometric reagents can be reproduced along with an electrocatalytic conduction of transformation. Moreover, electrochemical processes are proven to be safe, shortcut to many steps, milder transformations, alternative method to access desired structural entities as well as creating intellectual property (IP) space. Heterocyclic compounds belong to such class of molecules which get more attention in organic synthesis due to their presence in a wide range of drug molecules. This article surveys recent developments on electrochemical organic synthesis of heterocycles and their derivatives.
