Cover Story: Organobromides represent a significantly important product class that are mainly produced via traditional bromination methods utilizing highly volatile and corrosive bromine or its surrogates in the presence of excess oxidizers. Electrochemical bromination and bromofunctionalization provide a sustainable and green alternative to the conventional synthetic protocols via generating bromine in situ under controlled conditions from bench-stable bromide salts and electricity as sole oxidizing reagents. The superiority of synthetic electrochemistry is demonstrated via a collection of diverse and widely established electrochemical bromofunctionalization protocols to form synthetically important commodities based on alkenes and alkynes.
