and indirect electrolysis
The characteristics and proper choice of
mediators and their synthetic applications are
described in
Chapters 2
and
4
, respectively.
Many types of mediators are available and the
redox potentials of mediators can be tuned by
their molecular design. Moreover, some
mediators can be applied to electrochemical
asymmetric synthesis [6-9].
3.4 Electrode Materials and
Reference Electrodes
The choice of electrode material is one of the
most important factors in electrolysis since the
material is not only the interface for electron
transfer with the substrate molecule but also
acts as an electrocatalyst. If the correct
