惰性键与二氧化碳的电化学羧化反应研究

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a green and renewable C1 synthon, and the direct carboxylation of inert chemical bonds with CO2 could afford high value-added carboxylic acid derivatives from simple molecules, which feature both atomic and step economies. Organic electrosynthesis is a green synthesis technology using electrons as "reagents", and the development of electrochemical carboxylation of inert bonds with CO₂ has become a hot research topic in recent years. The recent progress on the electroreductive carboxylation of inert bonds with CO₂ is summarized, including C—H, C—C, C—O, and C—F single bonds. The mechanism and application of these reactions are emphatically discussed, and the challenges and development trends in this field are also covered.
