摘要
From the viewpoint of abundance,economy,non-toxicity,and renewability,CO_(2) is the ideal C1 synthon in organic synthetic chemistry.Utilizing CO_(2) for chemical conversion to synthesize highly value-added fine chem-icals is of great significance.Organic electrochemical synthesis that employs electrons as redox reagents to achieve selective oxidation or reduction has attracted much attention in the past decades.In this review,recent advances in the electrochemical carboxylations using CO_(2) from the perspective of organic synthesis will be summarized.We give an overview about the research progress of electrocarboxylation reactions according to the classification of substrates,such as alkenes,organic(pseudo)halides,aldehydes,ketones,and imines.The carb-anions produced by cathodic reduction are important intermediates in the electrocarboxylation reactions using CO_(2).
