Electrochemistry Enabled Natural Products Synthesis

Electrochemically enabled organic synthesis of natural products mainly alkaloids and terpenoids an atom-efficient mild sustainable process permits an eco-friendly and elegant green path to synthesize structurally complex still valuable molecules at room temperature avoiding the use of conventional harsh oxidizing and reducing agents and often cut down long route reaction protocols. Hence it increases the yield of reactions and reduces the time consumed as well as by-products. Being one of the oldest forms of reaction setups in laboratory it deals with fundamental redox chemistry through the direct application of an electrical potential. In This book the alterative green transformation roadmap through nonclassical bond disconnections to access desired target molecules (mainly alkaloids & terpenoids) will be discussed in detail. How apparently looking difficult bonds are built with excellent regio- chemo-and stereoselectivity that will also be shown. Obviously it emerges as an alternative and attractive technique for the present synthetic communities.
