Precise D incorporation with controllable deuterated sites is extremely desirable. Here, a facile and efficient electrocatalytic deuterodehalogenation of halides using D2O as the deuteration reagent and Cu nanowire arrays (Cu NWAs) electrochem. formed in situ as the cathode was demonstrated. A cross-coupling of C and D free radicals might be involved for this ipso-selective deuteration. This method exhibited excellent chemoselectivity and high compatibility with the easily reducible functional groups (C=C, C C, C=O, C=N, C N). The C-H to C-D transformations were achieved with high yields and D ratios through a 1-pot halogenation-deuterodehalogenation process. Efficient deuteration of less-active bromide substrates, specific D incorporation into top-selling pharmaceuticals, and oxidant-free paired anodic synthesis of high-value chems. with low energy input highlighted the potential practicality.
