“… 40 For example, Ackermann developed electrocatalytic sp 2 C–H activation reactions toward C–O, C–N, and C–C formation, in which turnover of the transition metal catalyst (e.g., Co, Ni, Cu, Rh) is achieved directly on an anode. 41 A similar strategy has also been independently employed by Sanford, 42 Lei, 43 Xu, 44 Mei, 45 Waldvogel, 46 et al for “oxidant-free” oxidative functionalization of C–H bonds.…”
