An electrochemical version of the Corey-Winter reaction was developed giving excellent results in aqueous methanol media (MeOH/H<sub>2</sub>O (80:20) with AcOH/AcONa buffer 0.5 M as supporting electrolyte), using a reticulated vitreous carbon as cathode in a divided cell. The electrochemical version is much more environmentally friendly than the classical reaction, where a large excess of trialkyl phosphite as reducing agent and high temperatures are required. Thus, cathodic reduction at room te ...[more]
