The　alpha-C-H　functionalization　of　carbonyl　compounds　represents　a　cornerstone　of　organic　chemistry.　Site-selective　alpha-C-H　bond　functionalization　of　carbonyl　compounds　to　afford　more　versatile　functionalized　groups　has　become　a　promising　strategy　for　atom-economical　C-C　and　C-X　bond　formation.　Organic　electrosynthesis　is　revolutionizing　the　nature　of　organic　synthesis,　and　this　field　has　seen　explosive　growth　in　recent　years.　In　this　review,　we　discuss　advances　in　the　use　of　electrochemistry　for　the　alpha-C-H　oxidative　functionalization　of　carbonyl　compounds　published　since　2000.
