Organometallic reactions are approaches that can yield a broad spectrum of organic compounds, such as alcohols and amines, in aqueous and non-aqueous media [1,2]. The most applicable process of organometallic reagents is carbon carbon bond formation (arylation and alkylation). In these protocols, the intended metals (zinc, magnesium, lithium, iridium, tin, chromium, nickel, palladium, copper, and ruthenium) are incorporated into the structures of organic compounds [3-5]. Electrochemistry and electrosynthesis are green and powerful tools for the investigation and synthesis of organic compounds. Also, the history of synthesis indicates that the application of applied current and potential (the electrochemical approach) in the synthesis of adducts is equally useful to organic chemistry and, in some cases, overcomes serious problems of the latter [6-9]. Organometallic reactions accompanied by electrochemical procedures have recently achieved considerable success in the formation of C C bonds [10]. In this work, electrochemical alkylation of some diol compounds has been performed based on the paired process. The electrochemical reactions are different at the cathode and anode surface electrodes. At the anode surface, the diol compounds were oxidized via losing of protons and electrons. In contrast, the activation of alkyl halide is carried out at the cathode surface via the reduction of Ni (II) to Ni (0). In solution media, the coupling reaction between the oxidized form of diol compounds and activated alkyl halide was performed in non-aqueous media (DMF/LiClO4). The isolated products were identified and characterized via 1HNMR, 13CNMR, and FTIR spectra. In summary, we provided a new study of the metal-catalyzed electrochemical synthesis of organic compounds with C C bond formation.
