Electrochemistry offers tunable, cost effective and environmentally friendly alternatives to carry out redox reactions but the use of organoiodine compounds as electrocatalysts is largely underdeveloped. Here, the authors report an environmentally benign iodine(I/III) electrocatalytic platform for the in situ generation of dichloroiodoarenes for different reactions within a continuous flow setup.
