4.6 Reaction Pattern of Organic
Electrode Reactions
Although electrode reactions are limited to
oxidation and reduction, various follow-up
chemical reactions often take place after
organic electron transfer. Organic electrode
reactions are therefore quite different from
those of inorganic compounds.
From a synthetic viewpoint, organic electrode
reactions are classified into various reaction
types, and examples of cathodic reduction and
anodic oxidation are given here.
