Abstract

New Organic Electrosynthetic Processes Innovated by Flow Reactor Technology

Mahito Atobe, Professor, Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Yokohama National University

Organic electrosynthesis is expected to be a typical green chemistry process because it does not require any hazardous reagents and produces less waste than conventional chemical synthesis. In fact, a number of successful new green organic electrolytic processes have been developed to date. In addition, electrochemical methodologies based on new concepts have been also developed. These related studies have become an active research area. This presentation will outline a new organic electrosynthetic processes based on flow reactor technology, focusing on our research.
