Abstract
Abstract Electrosynthesis is recognized as one of the most powerful and sustainable methods in organic chemistry. Recently, electrochemically enabled annulations of carbon‐carbon triple bonds have been successfully achieved, and have broadened prospects for the application of the emerging method with cyclization of alkynes. Thus, herein we outline the recent progress made on electrochemically enabled annulations of alkynes. In addition, an emphasis on the scope, limitations and the mechanisms of these reactions is made in this review. magnified image
