Abstract

The merger of organometallic C–H activation with electrocatalysis has emerged as a powerful strategy for molecular synthesis, avoiding the use of toxic and expensive chemical oxidants in stoichiometric quantities. This review summarizes recent progress in transition-metal-catalyzed electrochemical C–H activation by weak chelation assistance until March 2019.
