Abstract
An electrochemical deoxygenation of N-heteroaromatic N-oxide provides the corresponding N-heteroaromatics such as pyridines, quinolines, isoquinolines, and phenanthridines efficiently in aqueous solution without the need for transition-metal catalysts and waste-generating reducing reagents.
