Abstract

AbstractElectro‐organic synthesis, a method that uses electrical current to drive various organic transformations, has garnered significant attention, and so has heterogeneous electrosynthesis, a process that produces chemicals through electrochemical reactions at the interface between the electrode and an electrolyte. This concept highlights the synergistic potential of heterogeneous electrocatalysts, particularly in their use in cross‐coupling reactions. After thoroughly analyzing existing literature, key examples have been highlighted in this paper where heterogeneous electrocatalysts have facilitated the transformation of simple starting materials into useful products. This process lowers energy consumption and reduces waste. We hope this short review sparks the interest among those involved in organic electrosynthesis to explore and use heterogeneous electrocatalysis for cross‐coupling reactions.
