<p>Herein, we report a new electrochemical method for alkoxy radical 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 derivatization of the products has been demonstrated through chemoselective transformations, and the electrochemical process has been performed on a gram scale in continuous single-pass flow.<br></p><p>Analysis of reaction products from this methodology resulted in the following data:</p><p>1H, 19F and 13C NMR raw data files</p><p>IR spectra</p><p>High resolution mass spectrometry spectra.</p><p><br>Research results based upon these data are published at https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.orglett.2c01552<br></p>
