| Research Abstract |
We have successfully developed a novel environmentally friendly electrolytic system based on the acid-base reactions between protic solvents or carboxylic acids as substrates and solid-supported bases. Furthermore, we have successfully applied the electrolytic system using solid-supported bases to a flow cell and parallel electrosynthesis. On the other hand, in the series of studies, we found that solid-supported bases are not oxidized at the anode. On the basis of the finding, we proposed the concept of site isolation in organic electrosynthesis. It can be defined as solid-supported reagents are not subject to electrochemical destruction at electrodes.
