Electrochemically Driven Deuteration of Organic Compounds

WEBINAR

With its numerous unique characteristics, electrochemistry offers an appealing method for exploring new reactions and addressing current trends in organic synthesis. Over the years, we have made significant progress in developing an electroreductive platform that enables the versatile functionalization of commonly used electrophiles like alkenes and alkyl halides. In this presentation, we will delve into our latest findings regarding the electroreductive deuteration of organic molecules.
