Meanwhile, asymmetric synthesis, which provides expedient access to the valuable single-handed chiral molecules, holds an important position in modern organic synthesis 15, 16. The direct oxidation and reduction by the electric current with tunable redox potential constitute the most prominent advantage over conventional processes using stoichiometric chemical oxidants and reductants. Organic reactions driven by electricity has emerged as one of the most attractive tools in modern practical organic synthesis owing to their many “green” features, including atom economy, environmental benignity, and mild conditions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14.
