The technically relevant ligand precursor 3,3’,5,5’‐tetramethylbiphenol is usually obtained by oxidative coupling using mostly environmentally less benign processes. The electrochemical dehydrogenative electrochemical synthesis is an attractive and green technique to make this particular molecule. The different anodic approaches for oxidative coupling and challenges associated are surveyed by S. R. Waldvogel et al. in the Minireview on page 8252 ff.
