Unsaturated Carboxylates as Electrophilic Synthons for Transition-Metal-Catalyst-Free Electroreductive Deoxygenative Coupling.
The use of ester-derived electrophiles in transition-metal-free electroreductive C(sp3)─C(sp3) bond formation remains largely unexplored. Herein, we report a sacrificial-anode-enabled electroreductive cross-coupling of simple unsaturated carboxylates with unactivated alkyl halides. Aryl, alkenyl, and alkynyl carboxylat...
