A broad range of tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-ones were obtained in good to excellent yields with exclusive chemoselectivities and excellent regioselectivities. The H-hydrogen bond served as a key factor for the electrocatalytic production of aminomethyl radical at lower oxidative potential.展开更多
