The peak oxidation potentials of a series of polysubstituted triphenylamines were found to be highly linearly correlated (R=0.995) with their ionization potentials as computed by density functional theory. The computations, as well as confirming previous experiments demonstrating the planar geometry of such substances around the central nitrogen atom, also demonstrate substantial resonance interactions

Herein, we report a new electrochemical method for alkoxyradical generation from alcohols using a proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) approach, showcased via the deconstructive functionalization of cycloalkanols. The electrochemical method is applicable across a diverse array of substituted cycloalkanols, accessing a broad range of synthetically useful distally functionalized ketones. The orthogonal
