Abstract
The construction of N-heterocyclic rings represents a very important and fast-developing area of organic synthesis. In this context, electrochemistry has emerged as a mild solution for generating in situ the required electrophilic substrates, bases and nucleophiles derived from low-level and extremely stable reagents, the further application of which makes some heterocycles more accessible. In this review, we have covered the recent advances in the electrochemical synthesis of five- and six-membered N-heterocyclic compounds published from 2017 to October 2018.
