“…[50,56] Commonly, electrolysis has been conducted using nickel, [48,49,[51][52][53][54][56][57][58][59] gold, [50] and graphite/carbon nanotube [55] cathodes with sacrificial anodes such as iron, [49,51,54,58] duralumin, [49] stainless steel, [48,59] magnesium, [50] zinc, [51][52][53][54] nickel, [56] or Fe 64 Ni 36 . [57] While sacrificial anodes offer some benefits in organic electrosynthesis, [60,61] the dissolution of the anode can complicate electrolysis, altering the inter-electrode gap as reaction progresses, [62] and the generation of stoichiometric metal waste can complicate waste disposal on a larger scale. [63] A few methods in the literature have avoided the use of sacrificial anodes in nickel-mediated electrohomocouplings by utilizing water [56] and urea oxidations [64] as counter-reactions in a divided cell.…”
