The electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy is probably the most important chiraloptical method, and the role of chirality in contemporary chemistry, pharmacy, and material science constantly increases. On the other hand, the electrochemical methods are also very sensitive tools for studying multivarious redox processes. Nevertheless, the first ECD spectroelectrochemical (SEC) study was only published by Daub, Salbeck and Aurbach in 1988, and since then, the ECD SEC method has been mentioned in only thirty papers. By the summer of 2020, the ECD SEC studies were mainly focused around molecular systems for organic, and marginally, inorganic chiroptical switching studies of biochemical redox reactions. The review provides more details about the ECD SEC studies carried out so far. At the end, we suggest some future applications for the ECD spectroelectrochemistry.
电子圆二色性（ECD）光谱可能是最重要的手性光学方法，手性在当代化学、药学和材料科学中的作用不断增加。另一方面，电化学方法也是研究各种氧化还原过程的非常敏感的工具。然而，第一个 ECD 光谱电化学（SEC）研究仅由 Daub、Salbeck 和 Aurbach 于 1988 年发表，此后，ECD SEC 方法仅在三十篇论文中被提及。到 2020 年夏天，ECD SEC 的研究主要集中在有机分子系统，以及生物化学氧化还原反应的手性光学开关研究上。本文综述了迄今为止进行的 ECD SEC 研究的更多细节。最后，我们为 ECD 光谱电化学提出了一些未来的应用。
