In recent years, organic electrochemistry has developed rapidly due to its mild conditions, environmental friendliness and high efficiency. Meanwhile, iron catalysts have effectively compensated for the high cost and poor sustainability of traditional noble-metal catalysts due to their low price, abundant reserves, and tunable of their valence and spin states. The development of iron-catalyzed electrochemical transformations has provided green, efficient, and sustainable synthetic tools for modern organic synthesis. Presently, such strategies have been widely applied in various reaction systems including oxidation, reduction, and coupling reactions. This review summarizes the latest advances in this field, focusing on three categories of iron-catalyzed electrochemical reactions: oxidative, reductive, and redox-paired transformations. The corresponding catalytic mechanisms and representative reactions are discussed, and an outlook on iron-catalyzed electrochemical transformations is also provided.
Key words: iron catalysis; organic electrochemistry; redox reaction
