Interfacial Anion-Induced Dispersion of Active Species for Efficient Electrochemical Baeyer–Villiger Oxidation

Degradable polymers are an effective solution for white plastic pollution. Polycaprolactone is a type of degradable plastic with desirable mechanical and biocompatible properties, and its monomer, ε-caprolactone (ε-CL), is often synthesized by Baeyer-Villiger (B-V) oxidation that demands peroxyacids with low safety and low atom-efficiency. Herein, we devised an electrochemical B-V oxidation system simply driven by H
