Abstract
Electrochemical allylation reactions of carbonyl compounds using cathodes prepared from nitrogen-doped carbon (NDC)-incarcerated zinc catalysts have been developed. A range of aldehydes and ketones afforded the desired allylic alcohols in high yields with <10 mol % zinc leaching, and the heterogeneous nature of the active species was suggested. Compared with bulk zinc electrodes, NDC-stabilized zinc nanoparticle species were compatible with a broader range of heteroaromatic substrates and enabled the use of an undivided cell.
