Working Paper
This content is an early or alternative research output and has not been peer-reviewed by Cambridge University Press at the time of posting.

Abstract

An external oxidant or reductant, acid-free electrochemical protocol is established towards the hydrogenation of strained rings at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. After control experiments, it is revealed that the reaction is initiated via the reduction of the carbonyl group. The methodology is highly specific towards the strained rings and has a broad functional group tolerance.
