There has been a resurgence of interest in organic electrochemistry as a green synthetic tool, with many electrochemical methods developed in the past decade to access various nitrogen-centered radicals (NCRs) for the construction of nitrogen-containing organic compounds. This review critically highlights recent advances in the chemistry of electrochemically generated NCRs, focusing on the strategies for their formation and types of NCRs, as well as the mechanism and synthetic applications of different NCRs.
There is a resurgence of interests in organic electrochemistry, which is generally accepted as a green synthetic tool. In this context, many electrochemical methods have been developed in the past decade to access various nitrogen-centered radicals (NCRs) from readily available precursors in a controlled fashion, enabling the rapid development of many NCR-mediated new reactions for the construction of nitrogen-containing organic compounds. In this review, recent advances in the chemistry of electrochemically generated NCRs are critically highlighted, based on the electrochemical strategies for their formation and the types of NCRs. Focus is put on the mechanism for the electrochemical generation of different NCRs and their synthetic applications.
