Abstract
This review deals with recent aspects on electroreduction of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium compounds which involves three major topics as follows : (1) Characteristic features of electroreductive cleavages of S-S, Se-Se, Te-Te, S-N, S-C, and Se-C bonds ; (2) Electroreductive removal of sulfonyl protecting groups ; (3) Electrosyntheses of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium containing compounds which have interesting physical properties and novel functionalities.
