The choice of electrode material is critical for achieving optimal yields and selectivity in synthetic organic electrochemistry. The material imparts significant influence on the kinetics and thermodynamics of electron transfer, and frequently defines the success or failure of a transformation. Electrode processes are complex and so the choice of a material is often empirical and the underlying mechanisms and rationale for success are unknown. In this review, we aim to highlight recent instances of electrode choice where rationale is offered, which should aid future reaction development.
在有机合成电化学中，电极材料的选择对于实现最佳产率和选择性至关重要。该材料对电子转移的动力学和热力学有重大影响，并常常决定转化反应的成败。电极过程很复杂，因此材料的选择往往是凭经验的，成功的潜在机制和基本原理尚不清楚。在本综述中，我们旨在突出近期提供了基本原理的电极选择实例，这将有助于未来反应的开发。
