Abstract

AbstractIodine‐catalyzed C−H functionalization has emerged as an attractive tool for the construction of various C−X (X=C, N, O, S, etc.) bonds, without the use of toxic transition‐metal catalysts. Nevertheless, strong chemical oxidants are usually required for the regeneration of iodine‐containing catalysts, which leads to poor atom economy and undesirable side reactions. Organic electrochemistry provides new opportunities for the assembly of various chemical bonds in an environmentally friendly manner. This Minireview discusses the recent advances of synthetic electrochemistry in C−H functionalization with various iodine‐containing reagents.
