The use of metallic nanowires is mostly reduced to scientific areas where a small quantity of nanostructures are needed. In order to broaden the applicability of these nanomaterials, it is necessary to establish novel synthesis protocols that provide a larger amount of nanowires than the conventional laboratory fabrication processes at a more competitive cost. In this work, we propose several modifications to the conventional electrochemical synthesis of nanowires in order to increase the production with considerably reduced production time and cost. To that end, we use a soft anodization procedure of recycled aluminum at room temperature to produce the alumina templates, followed by galvanostatic growth of CoFe nanowires. We studied their morphology, composition and magnetic configuration, and found that their properties are very similar to those obtained by conventional methods.

N doping in graphene can be achieved using a facile and mild approach using electrochemical energy at room temperature with ammonia as the N source, which occurs at the carbon active sites generated in situ during the removal of oxygen containing species at cathodic potentials.

A method for the electrochemical synthesis of sulfinic esters by aerobic oxidative coupling of thiophenols and alcohols has been developed. Using electrons as the redox reagent and O2 in air as the oxygen source, the reactions proceeded smoothly at room temperature, even for a gram-scale preparation. No use of catalyst, clean redox reagent, green and abundant oxygen source, and mild reaction conditions make this strategy eco-friendly.
