Recently, a reusable polymerized ionic liquid/carbon nanoparticle composite electrolyte was developed and effectively applied to a variety of oxidative transformations. The efficient recovery of the composite material and its application in subsequent electroorganic conversions without sacrificing yield adds to the sustainability of the protocol. Herein, we describe our efforts to expand the operational window of the composite electrolyte to include cathodically initiated processes occurring at potentials up to 2.6 V. The results indicate that the composite electrolyte is applicable to reductive processes, but the scope of transformations appears to be limited.
