The merger of cobalt-catalyzed C-H activation and electrosynthesis provides new avenues for resource-economical molecular syntheses, unfortunately their reaction mechanisms remain poorly understood. Herein, we report the identification and full characterization of electrochemically generated high-valent cobalt(III/IV) complexes as crucial intermediates in electrochemical cobalt-catalyzed C-H oxygenations. Detailed mechanistic studies provided support for an oxidatively-induced reductive eliminat ...[more]
