Abstract
An external oxidant or reductant, acid-free electrochemical protocol is established towards the hydrogenation of strained rings at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. After control experiments, it is revealed that the reaction is initiated via the reduction of the carbonyl group. The methodology is highly specific towards the strained rings and has a broad functional group tolerance.
