The 67th special feature, titled “Electrosynthesis Revolutionizing Synthetic Organic Chemistry,” will focus on electrosynthesis, an innovative technology with the potential for sustainable compound production. Electrosynthesis is a chemical process that uses electricity as the main driving force for reactions, replacing harmful chemicals with electrons. The topic spans both small- and macro-molecule synthesis and highlights the adaptability and promise of electrosynthesis in several areas. The emphasis on the importance of electrosynthesis in the area of green chemistry makes it of interest to professionals and academic researchers in the field of industrial chemistry. This special feature presents a path of change toward a more environmentally friendly, sustainable, and efficient chemical synthesis.
