The amide functionality is of fundamental importance for both biological systems and for the field of synthetic organic chemistry in general, as it constitutes the backbone of all natural proteins, and moreover it is present in a considerable amount of value chemicals. For example, ∼40% of the 420,000 currently known bioactive molecules and 25% of the pharmaceutical compounds available on the market today, contain at least one amide group. Furthermore, process chemists from the pharmaceutical industry have specifically highlighted amide bond formation as the most important transformation, and have called out to the synthetic chemistry community for a new generation of innovative and sustainable protocols for amide bond construction. Halogens, in particular chlorine and bromine, represent another group of highly important structural elements that can either serve as versatile precursors for other functional groups through cross-coupling chemistry or be integral parts of pharmaceutical and fine chemical products. In several documented cases, the introduction of halogens has been shown to have a pronounced positive impact on the biological effects of drug molecules, significantly improving their potency and pharmacokinetic properties. Today, many FDA-approved drugs incorporate chlorine and bromine atoms, underscoring their importance and demonstrating the need for new and broadly applicable halogenation methodologies. As a result, there currently exists a major demand from the broad chemistry community for new and highly general halogenation methodologies. As an alternative to conventional stoichiometric chlorinating reagents that are infamous for their poor selectivity and harsh reaction conditions, catalytic halogenation methodologies have been brought forward as a more efficient way to achieve the halogenation of organic compounds. In this regard, the direct electrocatalytic halogenation of C-H bonds constitutes perhaps the most appealing strategy, since it enables electrons to be used as green and highly modular redox reagents for generating reactive X + species from the anodic oxidation of chloride anions (X -), without the need of any additional redox reagents. Several electrocatalytic methodologies for the direct C-H halogenation of aromatic and heteroaromatic scaffolds using either HX-or X2-type reagents as well as other halogen sources such as 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE), CCl4, Cl3CCN, ethyl chloroformate KCl, LiCl 37,45 and MgCl2 have already been developed. However, to the best of our knowledge, no electrocatalytic C-H halogenation method have so far been implemented in a cascade protocol involving amide bond formation. Inspired by the concept of green chemistry, we saw the potential to develop an environmentally benign strategy for constructing halogenated amides and related compounds in one-pot and in a highly selective manner, without the need of any catalysts or stoichiometric redox reagents when using electrochemistry as an enabling technology.
