Here, we report an electrochemical synthesis strategy achieving RO production via electrooxidation of rifamycin B (RB) resulting in a 92% high yield. Trace water addition improves the functional-group compatibility during RB electrooxidation, substantially elevating the RO yield by 10%. Mechanistic studies reveal that trace water regulates methanol's hydrogen bond network, facilitates the dissociation of the hydroxyl group in the carboxylic acid, and enriches RB at the electrode/electrolyte interface, thereby achieving thermodynamic and kinetic synergistic optimization of RB electrooxidation. Systematic optimization of flow electrolyzer parameters further improves performance. The scale-up experiment with an electrode area of 400 cm² electrode demonstrates high yield and space time yield.

Traditional oxidation methodologies employing stoichiometric oxidants (Na 2 S 2 O 8 , NaNO 2 , MnO 2 ; Scheme 1b) suffer from several limitations. 6,7 The yield and purity of RO remain relatively low, and the production process generates substantial wastewater and waste solids, raising environmental concerns and posing challenges to industrial production. Consequently, developing eco-efficient RO production methods constitutes an imperative. Electrochemistry provides an efficient and sustainable strategy for organic synthesis by replacing traditional oxidizing agents with electrical energy. 8,9,10,11,12 The electrochemical strategy facilitates the transformation of complex organic molecules under mild conditions, while enabling precise regulation of reaction rates through current intensity modulation and enhanced selectivity via controlled reaction potentials. 13,14,15 Because of these benefits, electrochemistry is increasingly attracting the attention of researchers. 16,17,18 However, current research predominantly focuses on the electrooxidation of small molecules, 14,19,20,21 whereas complex molecular electrooxidation faces significant challenges, including limited functional-group compatibility, 22,23 poor regioselectivity control, 23 and sluggish mass transport kinetics. These limitations collectively hinder the scalability and practical implementation of complex molecular electrooxidation. Antibiotic molecules, as complex structures, contain multiple functional groups, complicating their late-stage electrochemical modifications because of competing reaction sites and functional-group incompatibility. Consequently, achieving the electrochemical synthesis of rifamycin O with high selectivity and space-time yield remains a significant challenge. Flow electrolyzer play a pivotal role in electrochemical scale-up production. Compared to conventional batch systems, flow electrolyzer offers distinct advantages: enhanced mass/heat transfer, higher operational repeatability, improved safety, and effective suppression of side reactions. 24,25,26,27 However, critical aspects such as cathode-anode interactions, diaphragm selection, and electrolysis mode optimization remain insufficiently understood. These knowledge gaps pose significant challenges for parameter optimization and industrial scaling, necessitating systematic investigation of flow electrolyzer systems. Here, we develop a straightforward and green electrooxidation method for rifamycin O production (Scheme 1c). The addition of trace water diminishes the electrooxidation potential of RB, increases the interfacial charge transfer rate, and improves the functional-group compatibility during RB electrooxidation to achieve high yield and space-time yield. In-situ infrared spectroscopy and electrochemical analysis reveal that trace water addition regulates the hydrogen bond network, reduces the carboxyl group's proton-transfer energy barrier, and promotes the dissociation of the hydroxyl group in the carboxylic acid. Simultaneously, water induces RB enrichment at the electrode/electrolyte interface, achieving thermodynamic and kinetic synergistic optimization of RB electrooxidation. Additionally, systematic parameter optimization of the flow electrolyzer further enhances the reaction efficiency. Finally, the scalability of RB electrooxidation was demonstrated through a scale-up experiment using a large-scale flow electrolyzer. Results Method Development. A novel method for the electrooxidation of rifamycin B was developed. The method employed methanol as the solvent and LiClO 4 as the supporting electrolyte, with the trace water addition (0.5 mL, 2 vol%) to enhance the electrooxidation effect. A RO yield of 90% and a rifamycin S (RS) yield of 2% were achieved under optimal conditions (entry 1). The absence of water resulted in a RO yield of 82% (entry 2), indicating that water is beneficial for electrooxidation of RB. The use of an undivided electrolyzer led to a decrease in yield (entry 3), resulting in a modest RO yield of 77%. Furthermore, no oxidation product was observed in the absence of current (entry 4), suggesting that electrons act as oxidants and that the occurrence of electrooxidation reactions necessitates electron transfer from RB to the electrode surface. The selection of supporting electrolytes significantly influences the electrocatalytic microenvironment, thereby affecting both the reaction rate and product selectivity (Supplementary Fig. 1a). However, the extensive use of various electrolytes in industrial processes can lead to substantial solid waste pollution. Consequently, the choice of electrolyte must take into account factors such as separability, recyclability, safety, and cost-effectiveness. Electrolyte screening was conducted in an undivided electrolyzer. Tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (TBHS) was chosen as the supporting electrolyte due to its previously mentioned characteristics (entry 5). However, the readily hydrolyzable nature of RO under acidic conditions resulted in a significantly low yield (27%), accompanied by a substantial amount of RS (50%). The utilization of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium fluoride (KF) as basic electrolytes (entry 6 and 7) yielded only trace amounts and 57% yield, respectively. This may be attributed to the dissociation of phenolic hydroxyl groups on RB caused by the presence of Lewis bases and Brønsted bases, leading to complex oxidation reactions. Additionally, substantial peroxide byproducts (25% and 13%) were observed alongside low RO yields (1% and 57%). LiClO 4 as the electrolyte provided the most favorable outcome, achieving 77% RO yield (entry 3). However, the use of perchlorate raises safety concerns for scale-up experiments, as it is mechanically sensitive in the presence of organic materials or metals and poses toxicological hazards. Consequently, potassium chloride (KCl) was identified as a suitable alternative (entry 8). Despite a decrease in yield to 74%, the proposed approach may help mitigate the risks associated with subsequent amplification experiments. Electrode materials can be defined as catalysts for electrochemical reactions, as their selection significantly influences interfacial charge transfer processes. Supplementary Fig. 1b shows the cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves for RB electrooxidation with various electrode materials. The results indicate that graphite felt (GF, black line) and graphite plate (GP, orange line) electrodes exhibit significantly higher anodic oxidation currents than other materials. In contrast, the current responses of nickel foam (NF), nickel plate (NP), and platinum (Pt) electrodes are comparatively low, highlighting the superior performance of carbon-based materials for RB electrooxidation. Subsequently, the GF exhibited the highest oxidation current, owing to its three-dimensional porous structure. This architecture not only provides abundant active sites but also facilitates efficient contact between the reaction substrate and the electrode surface (Supplementary Fig. 2). 28 In contrast, the graphite plate (GP) anode achieved a significantly lower yield of 70% (entry 9), which is lower than that obtained with GF as the anode (entry 3) (Supplementary Fig. 1c). In an undivided electrolyzer, the anode and cathode share the same reaction chamber, leading to inevitable interference of cathodic processes on the anode reaction. The impact of cathode materials on RB electrooxidation was evaluated to quantify cathode effect. The results indicated that the use of different cathode materials significantly affected the electrooxidation of RB (Supplementary Fig. 1d). The NP (entry 10) achieved the highest RO yield at 78%, while the NF (entry 11) only attained 68%. The observed disparity led to the decision to employ a divided electrolyzer to alleviate cathodic influence on the reaction (entry 3). Additionally, it was observed that the electrooxidation of RB was inhibited by increasing the temperature. RO yield of only 73% was obtained at a reaction temperature of 30 °C, while RS increased (entry 12). The electrochemical technique and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were employed to investigate the electrooxidation process of RB in a divided electrolyzer. Fig. 1a illustrates that the oxidation current is relatively weak for the pure methanol solution. Upon addition of RB, a significant increase in current density was observed (red line). A pronounced current occurred when the applied potential reached ~ 0.20 V vs. SCE, suggesting rapid electron transfer between RB and the electrode surface. Furthermore, the electrooxidation rate of RB showed a voltage-dependent enhancement. Fig. 1b presents the chronopotentiometry curve and charge-time correlation during RB electrooxidation. The anode potential was maintained at approximately 0.37 V vs. SCE in the process of RB electrooxidation. The potential persisted until substrate depletion occurred, followed by a distinct voltage surge. HPLC was performed to monitor the concentration changes of RB, and the product RO. Fig. 1c shows that the peak intensity of RB decreased and RO increased as the reaction time increased. Simultaneously, the color of the electrolyte transitioned from the initial orange (RB) to yellow (RO) (the inset image in Fig. 1c). The HPLC profile of the electrooxidation of RB after 4200 s is detailed in Supplementary Fig. 3. Quantitative analysis via external standard calibration revealed 99% RB conversion and 82% RO yield under anhydrous conditions (Fig. 1d). Notably, a reduction in the yield of RO was observed during the final reaction phase. The observed decrease is attributed to the diminishing concentration of RB, leading to reduced electrooxidation rates. To compensate for the diminished reaction rate, elevated overpotential was required, which induced over-oxidation of RO and consequently reduced product yield. Analysis of the Promoting Effect of Trace Water. A series of experiments were performed to investigate the underlying catalytic mechanism. LiClO 4 was employed as the electrolyte to eliminate potential confounding effects arising from the limited solubility of KCl in methanol and to clarify the role of water. LSV revealed that the current density of RB electrooxidation increased upon the addition of 0.5 mL water (pink curve, Fig. 2a). The chronopotentiometric (E-t) curves recorded at current densities of 5 and 10 mA/cm² (Fig. 2b) showed a marked reduction in the overpotential for RB electrooxidation when water was introduced (solid curves) compared to the control system (dashed curves). The complex molecular structure of RB presented challenges for functional-group compatibility. The introduction of trace water lowered the overpotential, inhibited side reactions involving other functional groups at high potentials and improved functional-group compatibility, thus enhancing the electrooxidation yield of RB. The enhancement of electrooxidation of RB by trace water was further verified through constant current electrolysis experiments conducted at 5 mA/cm². Following the trace water addition, the yield of RO increased from 82% to 90%, as illustrated in Fig. 2c (Scheme 2, entry 1). Similarly, when KCl was used as the electrolyte (Supplementary Fig. 4), a significant increase in the RO yield was observed following the introduction of trace amounts of water, from 82% to 92%. These findings suggest that water facilitates RB electrooxidation via an electrolyte-independent mechanism. Furthermore, the effect of different additional water volumes on the electrooxidation of RB was investigated. Fig. 2d illustrates the relationship between varying water content, expressed in equivalent form, and the electrooxidation of RB. As the water content increased from 10 to 30 eq, the RO yield exhibited a linear growth from 82% to 88%. However, once the water content reaches 58.5 eq or more, further increases do not lead to significant enhancements in yield. Based on the stoichiometric equation of the RB electrooxidation reaction (RB → RO + H 2 ), the absence of water in the equation indicate that it does not function as a reactant in the electrooxidation process. The observed finding suggests that water inclined to modify the solvent system and the electrochemical reaction microenvironment, thereby promoting the electrooxidation of rifamycin B. 29,30,31 As illustrated in Supplementary Fig. 5, the volume of water added is expressed in milliliters. The further increase in the yield of RO can be attributed to the reduced solubility of RO at high water volumes (1 mL or 2 mL), which results in its precipitation during the reaction. The observed phenomenon impedes the subsequent overoxidation of solid RO on the electrode surface, leading to a modest increase in yield. A similar phenomenon is observed in the KCl electrolyte system (Supplementary Fig. 6), where the electrooxidation of RB is gradually enhanced with increasing water content. The constant potential electrolysis experiments performed at 0.35 V vs. SCE further demonstrate that trace water addition significantly enhances the electrooxidation kinetics of RB (Fig. 2e). In the absence of water, the current density for the electrooxidation of RB is less than 5 mA/cm 2 . The introduction of water markedly increases the current density, reaching ~10 mA/cm 2 during the initial phase of the reaction. Subsequently, the current density sharply decreased as the reaction progresses, indicating the rapid transformation of the substrate. As shown in Supplementary Fig. 7, complete RB conversion (~99%) was achieved within 2200 s with water addition, whereas it takes nearly twice as long (4400 s) to achieve the close conversion rate (95%) in the absence of water. These results demonstrate that the addition of trace water significantly enhances the electrooxidation kinetics of RB. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed to probe interfacial charge transfer and reaction kinetics. The Nyquist semicircle diameter for RB electrooxidation decreased significantly upon water addition, suggesting reduced charge transfer resistance and an accelerated charge transfer rate, thereby enhancing the RB electrooxidation rate (Fig. 2f). Tafel analysis was performed to assess the electrocatalytic kinetics of RB electrooxidation with and without water (Supplementary Fig. 8). The Tafel slope decreased from 60.5 mV/dec (without water) to 50.2 mV/dec upon water addition. The reduced Tafel slope confirms that water accelerates the electrooxidation kinetics of RB. To probe trace water enhanced mechanisms, changes in RB, 2a, and 3a within methanol solutions containing varying water contents were analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy (Fig. 3a-3b, and Supplementary Fig. 9). For RB, 2a, and 3a, spectral measurements were conducted in methanol/water mixtures of varying compositions, using the solvent (methanol/water mixture) as the spectral background. The resulting spectra reflect substrate interactions within methanol's hydrogen-bond network after background spectrum subtraction. FTIR spectral analysis demonstrated that RB, 2a and 3a exhibited comparable spectral characteristics (Fig. 3a), which were ascribed to their analogous benzene -ring skeleton structure, hydroxyl (-OH) group, and methanol hydrogen bond network. The O-H stretching vibration peak of the carboxyl group (-COOH) in 3a appeared at 3260 cm -1 . For 2a and RB, the O-H absorption bands were broadened and shifted towards higher wavenumbers (2a: 3310 cm -1 ; RB: 3350 cm -1 ). 3 The result phenomenon arises from the presence of O-H peaks with distinct vibrational intensities in 2a and RB. The higher wavenumber region corresponds to the phenol hydroxyl group vibration with weaker hydrogen bonding, while the lower region is associated with the carboxyl hydroxyl group vibration exhibiting stronger hydrogen bonding. 32 Additionally, characteristic peaks (e.g., C-H symmetric stretching at 2800 cm -1 , C=O stretching at 1710 cm -1 , and C-O-C asymmetric stretching at 1200 cm -1 ) demonstrated high consistency across all three samples, with only minor wavenumber shifts observed. 3,33,34,35,36 Unlike methanol, whose single hydroxyl group (–OH) acts as both hydrogen bond donor and acceptor, water has two donor sites and two acceptor sites. 37 This structure creates a stronger hydrogen bond network in water. As water content increases, a mixed network forms, intensifying hydrogen bonding involving methanol. 38,39,40 Water molecules integrate into the solvent shell of the substrate by disrupting the original methanol hydrogen bond network, forming interactions with the hydroxyl groups of the substrate. 30,41,42,43 Such modification results in a change to the substrate microenvironment. As demonstrated in Fig. 3b, with an increase in water content, a splitting of the O-H peaks of RB becomes evident, with the small acromion at 3268 cm -1 shifting to a low wave number, the 3350 cm -1 peak undergoing a shift to a high wavenumber, and ultimately, two split peaks emerge, while the remaining peaks remain relatively unchanged. These observations suggest that water significantly modulates the chemical behavior of O-H bonds in the substrate molecules through disrupting the methanol hydrogen bond network. For carboxylic acid O-H groups, the hydrogen bond strength increases, which is beneficial to reduce the proton transfer energy barrier of carboxylic groups and promote the dissociation of hydroxyl group in the carboxylic groups. Conversely, phenolic hydroxyl groups exhibit weakened hydrogen-bonding interactions, leading to suppressed O-H dissociation. In a manner analogous to that of RB, the infrared spectrum of compound 2a also exhibited the splitting phenomenon of the O-H stretching vibration peak (Supplementary Fig. 9a). Additionally, 3a (containing only carboxylic acid groups) showed a pronounced carboxylic acid O-H peak red shift (Supplementary Fig. 9b). The result indicates that it is a general approach to adjust the strength of the methanol hydrogen bond network by introducing a trace amount of water, thus modulating the strength of the substrate O-H bond. Electrochemical tests were employed to further verify the influence of trace water addition on O-H bond energy variations in carboxylic acid O-H groups and phenolic hydroxyl groups. Utilizing glass carbon electrodes to circumvent mass transfer interference engendered by the capillary effect of GF (Fig. 3c). With increasing water content, the hydrogen bond network is strengthened, the intermolecular interaction force is enhanced, the system viscosity increases, and the electrical conductivity decreases (Supplementary Fig. 10). These combined effects should result in a current drop phenomenon for the CV curve. The addition of water to the simple methanol solution slightly inhibits the current, in accordance with the law of conductivity decrease (Supplementary Fig. 11). Furthermore, the decline in RB and 2a peak currents in the presence of water suggests that the diffusion of reactants is inhibited (Fig. 3c), which is consistent with the enhancement of the hydrogen bond network. Notably, the introduction of water was observed to enhance current density and negatively shift the electrooxidation potential for RB, 2a, and 3a. These result proves that the introduction of water leads to a modification of the bond energy of the O-H bond in these substrates, thereby resulting in a change to the CV curve. Crucially, compound 3a contains exclusively -COOH groups, thereby eliminating interference from phenolic hydroxyl groups, yet a substantial current increase is still observed. The result finding suggests that the regulation of water on the -COOH bond energy is the primary factor contributing to the enhancement of RB electrooxidation performance. The introduction of trace water enhances the methanol hydrogen bond network and restructures the substrate solvation shell. Water molecules form hydrogen bonds interaction with carboxylic acid groups (-COOH), reducing the proton transfer energy barrier of the carboxylic groups and promoting O-H bond dissociation. These effects collectively optimize the thermodynamics of RB electrooxidation, enhance its reaction efficiency and improve the functional-group compatibility. In-situ infrared spectroscopy (IRAS) was employed to further elucidate water's role (Fig. 3d-3f). In the water-free RB solution, the 3100-3600 cm -1 vibrational band corresponds to methanol’s O-H stretching vibration, with a peak centered at 3304 cm -1 . The vibration peak at 2830 cm -1 corresponds to the C–H stretching vibration of methanol. As the applied potential increases from 0.00 V to 0.70 V vs. SCE, the intensity of the characteristic methanol peaks gradually increases, indicating enrichment of methanol at the interface. Notably, the O-H stretching peak exhibited no significant shift, implying that the hydrogen-bond network strength at the electrode surface remained stable under varying potentials. 31 In the presence of water, the in-situ IRAS spectra exhibit significant changes. At high potential (0.30 V ~ 0.70 V vs. SCE), the methanol O-H stretching vibration peak shifts to 3280 cm -1 , indicating that trace water strengthens the interfacial hydrogen-bond network. A new O-H peak emerges at 3350 cm -1 , corresponding to the phenolic hydroxyl group vibration of RB under low potential conditions (OCP ~ 0.25 V vs. SCE). The result reveals RB molecular enrichment on the electrode surface. These findings demonstrate that trace water not only optimizes RB electrooxidation thermodynamics but also promotes RB accumulation and increases interfacial RB concentration, thereby enhancing reaction kinetics. The effect of the potential on the shifting of the stretching vibration peak of O-H was the further investigated. As illustrated in Supplementary Fig. 12, the electrooxidation potential of RB is demonstrated under in-situ IRAS testing conditions. In the absence of water, the RB electrooxidation potential was observed at 0.35 V vs. SCE. Upon increasing the potential beyond this threshold, the infrared O-H stretching peak remained stable at approximately 3304 cm -1 without significant deviation (Fig. 3f). These results indicate that voltage elevation under water-free conditions induces negligible variation in interfacial RB concentration. The electrooxidation potential of RB was lowered by water addition (Supplementary Fig. 12), with a significant oxidation current appearing at 0.30 V vs. SCE. As the potential increased (ocp ~ 0.25 V vs. SCE), a notable shift in the infrared spectral profile was observed, with the O-H stretching vibration peak representing the phenolic hydroxyl group manifesting at 3350 cm -1 and assuming a dominant position. As the potential exceeded 0.30 V vs. SCE, RB electrooxidation initiated, causing RB consumption and interfacial concentration decrease. The electrooxidation process induced methanol's O-H stretching peak resurgence at 3280 cm -1 and broadened the absorption spectrum through methanol-phenolic hydroxyl band overlap. These observations suggest that trace water modulates the hydrogen-bond network, leading to preferential RB enrichment on the electrode surface. The elevated RB concentration at the interface enhances electrooxidation kinetics, thereby improving reaction efficiency. In summary, trace water addition regulates the methanol hydrogen bond network, modifies the solvent shell of the reactant, and facilitates hydrogen bond interaction between water and the hydroxyl group in -COOH. These effects reduce the proton transfer energy barrier of the carboxyl group, promotes O-H bond dissociation, and optimizes RB electrooxidation thermodynamics. Furthermore, trace water induces RB enrichment at the electrode/electrolyte interface, increases interfacial RB concentration, and enhances RB electrooxidation kinetics. Simultaneously optimizing the thermodynamics and kinetics of RB electrooxidation achieves high yield with improved functional-group compatibility (Fig. 3g). A possible mechanism for electrooxidation of Rifamycin B is shown in Supplementary Fig. 13. 44 Upon applying potential, rifamycin B undergoes single-electron transfer at the electrode surface to generate an aryl radical cation. This cation is captured by the substrate’s carboxyl group, accompanied by proton transfer. Trace water forms hydrogen bonds with RB's carboxyl groups, lowering the proton transfer barrier of carboxylic acid groups. These effects facilitate cationic intermediate capture by the carboxyl groups. The resulting aryl radical is further oxidized at the electrode, followed by phenolic hydroxyl deprotonation to afford the product. At the cathode, H₂O reduction yields OH⁻ and H₂; OH⁻ migrates across the anion exchange membrane into the anode chamber, neutralizing H⁺ from the anode and stabilizing the pH to inhibit RO hydrolysis. S ystematic optimization and scale-up application of flow electrolyzer. Inherent mass transport limitations in batch electrolyzers restrict the scalability of RB electrooxidation. Without stirring, the current density decreased significantly as the number of cyclic voltammetry (CV) cycles increased (Supplementary Fig. 14). In contrast, stirring maintained stable current density throughout CV cycling. These results demonstrate that enhanced mass transfer is critical for achieving the scalability of RB electrooxidation. A flow electrolyzer was conducted to enhance mass transfer and enable scalable electrooxidation (Fig. 4a, Supplementary Fig. 15). Fig. 4b presents the structural diagram of the continuous flow electrolyzer, employing both continuous flow and intermittent production methods for RB electrooxidation. Operation of the flow system (Fig. 4c) increased RB oxidation current density from 6.8 mA/cm 2 to 51.7 mA/cm 2 , representing a 7.6-fold increase. This improvement reduces reaction time, minimizes the hydrolysis of RO, accelerates substrate exchange on the electrode surface, and reduces the risk of peroxidation. Fig. 4d illustrates the yield and conversion rate of rifamycin B at varying current densities in flow electrolyzer. The flow electrolyzer system achieved 94% yield with ~100% conversion at 10 mA/cm 2 , surpassing the 90% yield and 99% conversion observed in the batch H-type electrolyzer at 5 mA/cm 2 (entry 1). These results demonstrate that process intensification improves both current density and RB electrooxidation efficiency. Increasing the current density resulted in a reduction of rifamycin O yield (88% at both 30 and 40 mA/cm²), which can be attributed to RO peroxidation under high potential conditions. Further current increases (50-100 mA/cm 2 ) exacerbated yield losses, adversely affecting RB electrooxidation. Screening experiments identified 10 mA/cm 2 as the optimal efficiency current density, though this low current density poses scaling up production challenges. Increasing the current density results in a higher formation of by-products, making it challenging to achieve an optimal balance between space time yield and selectivity. To resolve the apparent contradiction between space time yield and selectivity, product and byproduct evolution was analyzed at 40 mA/cm 2 (Fig. 4e). HPLC identified key byproducts at 24 minutes (Supplementary Fig. 3). RO yield increased rapidly with charge input during the initial reaction phase, while peroxide formation showed a more gradual growth. As theoretical time (600s, blue area) (theoretical time 825s) approached, the production rate of RO slowed down significantly (pink line), while the formation rate of peroxide products gradually increased (green line). Notably, between 900-1000 s (Q=40 C), only 2% RB conversion occurred (theoretical Q=6.6 C for 2% conversion), with most electrons diverted to peroxide generation. The HPLC chromatogram inset in Fig. 4e reveals significantly intensified peroxide peaks from 600 to 1000 s. The high current is indicative of a faster interfacial charge transfer rate, which requires a sufficiently elevated substrate concentration to meet the necessary interfacial electron exchange rate. During mid-to-late reaction stages, declining substrate concentration leads to insufficient interfacial reactant supply for continuous electron transfer. This causes charge accumulation at the electrode, raising the local potential and promoting RO peroxidation, thereby reducing product yield. The stage electrolysis method effectively resolves the trade-off between space time yield and selectivity. As demonstrated in Fig. 4f, this approach employs an initial high current density (40 mA/cm 2 ) to accelerate electrooxidation, followed by reducing the current to 10 mA/cm 2 to suppress peroxide formation. The final RO yield reached 93%, comparable to direct low-current electrolysis (Fig. 4g). Remarkably, the space time yield of 12.0 kg/(m 3 ·h) significantly exceeds that of batch H-type electrolysis (1.0 kg/(m 3 ·h)) and flow direct electrolysis (4.8 kg/(m 3 ·h)) (Fig. 4h). These results validate current-regulated electrochemical reaction kinetics as a viable strategy to minimize byproducts and optimize process outcomes. In electrochemical systems, diaphragm selection critically alters the electrolyte environment in cathodic/anodic regions, thereby modulating reaction effect. RB yield varies significantly with different diaphragms (Fig. 4i): BPM and AEM achieve 93% and 94% yields respectively, whereas PEM yields only 77%. HPLC analysis under PEM conditions revealed substantial RS formation due to RO hydrolysis under acidic conditions. As shown in Fig. 4j, post-electrolysis pH shifts markedly: PEM decreases from pH 1.3 to 0.6, while BPM and AEM increase to 1.6 and 1.8 respectively. These results demonstrate that anode-region pH variations are the key determinant of yield differences across AEM, PEM, and BPM systems. As shown in the RB anodization reaction (RB → RO + 2H + + 2e - ), H⁺ accumulation at the anode lowers pH, promoting RO hydrolysis and reducing yield. In the AEM system (Fig. 4i, red area), OH - migration from the cathode neutralizes anodic H + during electrolysis, stabilizing pH and delaying RO hydrolysis to maximize yield. Conversely, in PEM systems (Fig. 4k, blue area), K + migration impedes H⁺ transport from the anode, 45 causing continuous pH decrease and RO hydrolysis, thereby lowering yield. BPM achieves comparable yields to AEM due to similar H⁺ neutralization mechanisms. Given BPM operational challenges, AEM was selected for further investigation. Therefore, by optimizing the membrane material to regulate the pH in the anode region, and thereby influencing the anode reaction, this is a useful strategy. Furthermore, the impact of the cathode solution on the anode reaction was taken into consideration. RB yields showed 2% variation (Supplementary Fig. 16a) at varying NaOH concentrations (0.5-3 M) in the cathode. Higher NaOH concentrations increased the cathode region chemical potential, driving OH⁻ migration into the anode region and raising its pH (Supplementary Fig. 16b). At 3 M NaOH, the post-reaction anode pH reached its maximum (pH 1.8 vs. initial 1.3), effectively suppressing RO hydrolysis and improving yield. The multi-parameter optimization strategy provides critical insights for scaling up RB electrooxidation processes. To assess the scalability of the rifamycin B electrooxidation process (Fig. 5a), a large-scale flow electrolyzer with 40-fold increased electrode area (10 cm 2 → 400 cm 2 ; Fig. 5b-c, Supplementary Fig. 17) was operated under continuous flow. Stage electrolysis reduced total reaction time while suppressing RO hydrolysis and overoxidation (Fig. 5d). During the initial phase, a constant current of 16 A was applied, yielding a cell voltage around of 3.20 V. Upon reaching 645 s, the current was decreased to 4 A to mitigate over-oxidation, accompanied by a voltage drop to 2.10 V. A pronounced voltage surge served as the reaction termination criterion. HPLC analysis confirmed 99% RB conversion with 89% yield. High-purity rifamycin O (99.3% by HPLC) was obtained with 82% isolated yield via sequential rotary evaporation and cooling recrystallization. Furthermore, the large-scale flow electrolyzer achieves a space time yield of 36.7 kg/(m 3 ·h), which significantly surpasses the performance of the small-scale flow electrolyzer (12.0 kg/(m 3 ·h), 3.06-fold) (Fig. 5e). The result underscores the efficacy and scalability of the electrooxidation of rifamycin B and providing a paradigm for scale-up of organic electrosynthesis. Discussion In summary, we present a novel electrochemical reaction for the preparation of rifamycin O. Rifamycin O was obtained in a flow electrolyzer with a yield of 93% and a space time yield of 12.0 kg/(m 3 ·h) through the optimization of the reaction conditions and the electrolyzer system. Furthermore, a 50g rifamycin B scale-up experiment was conducted under 400 cm 2 electrode area, resulting in the attainment of high yield (82%) and space time yield (36.7 kg/(m 3 ·h)). Trace water addition regulates methanol's hydrogen-bond network, facilitates the dissociation of the hydroxyl group in the carboxylic acid, and concurrently enriches RB at the electrode/electrolyte interface. This synergistic thermodynamic and kinetic optimization improves functional-group compatibility, achieving high yield in RB electrooxidation. Furthermore, parameter optimization in the flow electrolysis system demonstrates that stage electrolysis technology enhances spacetime yield while leveraging anion-exchange membrane ion transport to regulate anode solution pH. The present approach establishes a sustainable paradigm for pharmaceutical electrosynthesis.

The addition of trace water diminishes the electrooxidation potential of RB, increases the interfacial charge transfer rate, and improves the functional-group compatibility during RB electrooxidation to achieve high yield and space-time yield. In-situ infrared spectroscopy and electrochemical analysis reveal that trace water addition regulates the hydrogen bond network, reduces the carboxyl group\u0026apos;s proton-transfer energy barrier, and promotes the dissociation of the hydroxyl group in the carboxylic acid. Simultaneously, water induces RB enrichment at the electrode/electrolyte interface, achieving thermodynamic and kinetic synergistic optimization of RB electrooxidation. Additionally, systematic parameter optimization of the flow electrolyzer further enhances the reaction efficiency. Finally, the scalability of RB electrooxidation was demonstrated through a scale-up experiment using a large-scale flow electrolyzer.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Results","content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMethod Development.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/strong\u003eA novel method for the electrooxidation of rifamycin B was developed. The method employed methanol as the solvent and LiClO\u003csub\u003e4\u003c/sub\u003e as the supporting electrolyte, with the trace water addition (0.5 mL, 2 vol%) to enhance the electrooxidation effect. A RO yield of 90% and a rifamycin S (RS) yield of 2% were achieved under optimal conditions (entry 1). The absence of water resulted in a RO yield of 82% (entry 2), indicating that water is beneficial for electrooxidation of RB. The use of an undivided electrolyzer led to a decrease in yield (entry 3), resulting in a modest RO yield of 77%. Furthermore, no oxidation product was observed in the absence of current (entry 4), suggesting that electrons act as oxidants and that the occurrence of electrooxidation reactions necessitates electron transfer from RB to the electrode surface.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe selection of supporting electrolytes significantly influences the electrocatalytic microenvironment, thereby affecting both the reaction rate and product selectivity (Supplementary Fig. 1a). However, the extensive use of various electrolytes in industrial processes can lead to substantial solid waste pollution. Consequently, the choice of electrolyte must take into account factors such as separability, recyclability, safety, and cost-effectiveness. Electrolyte screening was conducted in an undivided electrolyzer. Tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (TBHS) was chosen as the supporting electrolyte due to its previously mentioned characteristics (entry 5). However, the readily hydrolyzable nature of RO under acidic conditions resulted in a significantly low yield (27%), accompanied by a substantial amount of RS (50%).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe utilization of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium fluoride (KF) as basic electrolytes (entry 6 and 7) yielded only trace amounts and 57% yield, respectively. This may be attributed to the dissociation of phenolic hydroxyl groups on RB caused by the presence of Lewis bases and Brønsted bases, leading to complex oxidation reactions. Additionally, substantial peroxide byproducts (25% and 13%) were observed alongside low RO yields (1% and 57%). LiClO\u003csub\u003e4\u003c/sub\u003e as the electrolyte provided the most favorable outcome, achieving 77% RO yield (entry 3). However, the use of perchlorate raises safety concerns for scale-up experiments, as it is mechanically sensitive in the presence of organic materials or metals and poses toxicological hazards. Consequently, potassium chloride (KCl) was identified as a suitable alternative (entry 8). Despite a decrease in yield to 74%, the proposed approach may help mitigate the risks associated with subsequent amplification experiments.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectrode materials can be defined as catalysts for electrochemical reactions, as their selection significantly influences interfacial charge transfer processes. Supplementary Fig. 1b shows the cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves for RB electrooxidation with various electrode materials. The results indicate that graphite felt (GF, black line) and graphite plate (GP, orange line) electrodes exhibit significantly higher anodic oxidation currents than other materials. In contrast, the current responses of nickel foam (NF), nickel plate (NP), and platinum (Pt) electrodes are comparatively low, highlighting the superior performance of carbon-based materials for RB electrooxidation. Subsequently, the GF exhibited the highest oxidation current, owing to its three-dimensional porous structure. This architecture not only provides abundant active sites but also facilitates efficient contact between the reaction substrate and the electrode surface (Supplementary Fig. 2).\u003csup\u003e28\u003c/sup\u003e In contrast, the graphite plate (GP) anode achieved a significantly lower yield of 70% (entry 9), which is lower than that obtained with GF as the anode (entry 3) (Supplementary Fig. 1c).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn an undivided electrolyzer, the anode and cathode share the same reaction chamber, leading to inevitable interference of cathodic processes on the anode reaction. The impact of cathode materials on RB electrooxidation was evaluated to quantify cathode effect. The results indicated that the use of different cathode materials significantly affected the electrooxidation of RB (Supplementary Fig. 1d). The NP (entry 10) achieved the highest RO yield at 78%, while the NF (entry 11) only attained 68%. The observed disparity led to the decision to employ a divided electrolyzer to alleviate cathodic influence on the reaction (entry 3). Additionally, it was observed that the electrooxidation of RB was inhibited by increasing the temperature. RO yield of only 73% was obtained at a reaction temperature of 30 °C, while RS increased (entry 12).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electrochemical technique and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were employed to investigate the electrooxidation process of RB in a divided electrolyzer. Fig. 1a illustrates that the oxidation current is relatively weak for the pure methanol solution. Upon addition of RB, a significant increase in current density was observed (red line). A pronounced current occurred when the applied potential reached ~ 0.20 V vs. SCE, suggesting rapid electron transfer between RB and the electrode surface. Furthermore, the electrooxidation rate of RB showed a voltage-dependent enhancement. Fig. 1b presents the chronopotentiometry curve and charge-time correlation during RB electrooxidation. The anode potential was maintained at approximately 0.37 V vs. SCE in the process of RB electrooxidation. The potential persisted until substrate depletion occurred, followed by a distinct voltage surge.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHPLC was performed to monitor the concentration changes of RB, and the product RO. Fig. 1c shows that the peak intensity of RB decreased and RO increased as the reaction time increased. Simultaneously, the color of the electrolyte transitioned from the initial orange (RB) to yellow (RO) (the inset image in Fig. 1c). The HPLC profile of the electrooxidation of RB after 4200 s is detailed in Supplementary Fig. 3. Quantitative analysis via external standard calibration revealed 99% RB conversion and 82% RO yield under anhydrous conditions (Fig. 1d). Notably, a reduction in the yield of RO was observed during the final reaction phase. The observed decrease is attributed to the diminishing concentration of RB, leading to reduced electrooxidation rates. To compensate for the diminished reaction rate, elevated overpotential was required, which induced over-oxidation of RO and consequently reduced product yield.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalysis of the Promoting Effect of Trace Water.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/strong\u003eA series of experiments were performed to investigate the underlying catalytic mechanism. LiClO\u003csub\u003e4\u003c/sub\u003e was employed as the electrolyte to eliminate potential confounding effects arising from the limited solubility of KCl in methanol and to clarify the role of water. LSV revealed that the current density of RB electrooxidation increased upon the addition of 0.5 mL water (pink curve, Fig. 2a). The chronopotentiometric (E-t) curves recorded at current densities of 5 and 10 mA/cm² (Fig. 2b) showed a marked reduction in the overpotential for RB electrooxidation when water was introduced (solid curves) compared to the control system (dashed curves). The complex molecular structure of RB presented challenges for functional-group compatibility. The introduction of trace water lowered the overpotential, inhibited side reactions involving other functional groups at high potentials and improved functional-group compatibility, thus enhancing the electrooxidation yield of RB.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe enhancement of electrooxidation of RB by trace water was further verified through constant current electrolysis experiments conducted at 5 mA/cm². Following the trace water addition, the yield of RO increased from 82% to 90%, as illustrated in Fig. 2c (Scheme 2, entry 1). Similarly, when KCl was used as the electrolyte (Supplementary Fig. 4), a significant increase in the RO yield was observed following the introduction of trace amounts of water, from 82% to 92%. These findings suggest that water facilitates RB electrooxidation via an electrolyte-independent mechanism.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the effect of different additional water volumes on the electrooxidation of RB was investigated. Fig. 2d illustrates the relationship between varying water content, expressed in equivalent form, and the electrooxidation of RB. As the water content increased from 10 to 30 eq, the RO yield exhibited a linear growth from 82% to 88%. However, once the water content reaches 58.5 eq or more, further increases do not lead to significant enhancements in yield. Based on the stoichiometric equation of the RB electrooxidation reaction (RB → RO + H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e), the absence of water in the equation indicate that it does not function as a reactant in the electrooxidation process. The observed finding suggests that water inclined to modify the solvent system and the electrochemical reaction microenvironment, thereby promoting the electrooxidation of rifamycin B.\u003csup\u003e29,30,31\u003c/sup\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs illustrated in Supplementary Fig. 5, the volume of water added is expressed in milliliters. The further increase in the yield of RO can be attributed to the reduced solubility of RO at high water volumes (1 mL or 2 mL), which results in its precipitation during the reaction. The observed phenomenon impedes the subsequent overoxidation of solid RO on the electrode surface, leading to a modest increase in yield. A similar phenomenon is observed in the KCl electrolyte system (Supplementary Fig. 6), where the electrooxidation of RB is gradually enhanced with increasing water content.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe constant potential electrolysis experiments performed at 0.35 V vs. SCE further demonstrate that trace water addition significantly enhances the electrooxidation kinetics of RB (Fig. 2e). In the absence of water, the current density for the electrooxidation of RB is less than 5 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e. The introduction of water markedly increases the current density, reaching ~10 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e during the initial phase of the reaction. Subsequently, the current density sharply decreased as the reaction progresses, indicating the rapid transformation of the substrate. As shown in Supplementary Fig. 7, complete RB conversion (~99%) was achieved within 2200 s with water addition, whereas it takes nearly twice as long (4400 s) to achieve the close conversion rate (95%) in the absence of water. These results demonstrate that the addition of trace water significantly enhances the electrooxidation kinetics of RB.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed to probe interfacial charge transfer and reaction kinetics. The Nyquist semicircle diameter for RB electrooxidation decreased significantly upon water addition, suggesting reduced charge transfer resistance and an accelerated charge transfer rate, thereby enhancing the RB electrooxidation rate\u0026nbsp;(Fig. 2f). Tafel analysis was performed to assess the electrocatalytic kinetics of RB electrooxidation with and without water (Supplementary Fig. 8). The Tafel slope decreased from 60.5 mV/dec (without water) to 50.2 mV/dec upon water addition. The reduced Tafel slope confirms that water accelerates the electrooxidation kinetics of RB.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;To probe trace water enhanced mechanisms, changes in RB, 2a, and 3a within methanol solutions containing varying water contents were analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy (Fig. 3a-3b, and Supplementary Fig. 9). For RB, 2a, and 3a, spectral measurements were conducted in methanol/water mixtures of varying compositions, using the solvent (methanol/water mixture) as the spectral background. The resulting spectra reflect substrate interactions within methanol's hydrogen-bond network after background spectrum subtraction.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFTIR spectral analysis demonstrated that RB, 2a and 3a exhibited comparable spectral characteristics (Fig. 3a), which were ascribed to their analogous benzene -ring skeleton structure, hydroxyl (-OH) group, and methanol hydrogen bond network. The O-H stretching vibration peak of the carboxyl group (-COOH) in 3a appeared at 3260 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e. For 2a and RB, the O-H absorption bands were broadened and shifted towards higher wavenumbers (2a: 3310 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e; RB: 3350 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e).\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e The result phenomenon arises from the presence of O-H peaks with distinct vibrational intensities in 2a and RB.

These observations suggest that water significantly modulates the chemical behavior of O-H bonds in the substrate molecules through disrupting the methanol hydrogen bond network.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor carboxylic acid O-H groups, the hydrogen bond strength increases, which is beneficial to reduce the proton transfer energy barrier of carboxylic groups and promote the dissociation of\u0026nbsp;hydroxyl group in the\u0026nbsp;carboxylic groups. Conversely, phenolic hydroxyl groups exhibit weakened hydrogen-bonding interactions, leading to suppressed O-H dissociation. In a manner analogous to that of RB, the infrared spectrum of compound 2a also exhibited the splitting phenomenon of the O-H stretching vibration peak (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 9a). Additionally, 3a (containing only carboxylic acid groups) showed a pronounced carboxylic acid O-H peak red shift (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 9b). The result indicates that it is a general approach to adjust the strength of the methanol hydrogen bond network by introducing a trace amount of water, thus modulating the strength of the substrate O-H bond.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectrochemical tests were employed to further verify the influence of trace water addition on O-H bond energy variations in carboxylic acid O-H groups and phenolic hydroxyl groups.

With increasing water content, the hydrogen bond network is strengthened, the intermolecular interaction force is enhanced, the system viscosity increases, and the electrical conductivity decreases (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 10). These combined effects should result in a current drop phenomenon for the CV curve. The addition of water to the simple methanol solution slightly inhibits the current, in accordance with the law of conductivity decrease (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 11). Furthermore, the decline in RB and 2a peak currents in the presence of water suggests that the diffusion of reactants is inhibited (Fig. 3c), which is consistent with the enhancement of the hydrogen bond network.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotably, the introduction of water was observed to enhance current density and negatively shift the electrooxidation potential for RB, 2a, and 3a. These result proves that the introduction of water leads to a modification of the bond energy of the O-H bond in these substrates, thereby resulting in a change to the CV curve. Crucially, compound 3a contains exclusively -COOH groups, thereby eliminating interference from phenolic hydroxyl groups, yet a substantial current increase is still observed. The result finding suggests that the regulation of water on the -COOH bond energy is the primary factor contributing to the enhancement of RB electrooxidation performance. The introduction of trace water enhances the methanol hydrogen bond network and restructures the substrate solvation shell. Water molecules form hydrogen bonds interaction with carboxylic acid groups (-COOH), reducing the proton transfer energy barrier of the carboxylic groups and promoting O-H bond dissociation. These effects collectively optimize the thermodynamics of RB electrooxidation, enhance its reaction efficiency and\u0026nbsp;improve the functional-group compatibility.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn-situ infrared spectroscopy (IRAS) was employed to further elucidate water's role (Fig. 3d-3f). In the water-free RB solution, the 3100-3600 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e vibrational band corresponds to methanol’s O-H stretching vibration, with a peak centered at 3304 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e. The vibration peak at 2830 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e corresponds to the C–H stretching vibration of methanol. As the applied potential increases from 0.00 V to 0.70 V vs. SCE, the intensity of the characteristic methanol peaks gradually increases, indicating enrichment of methanol at the interface. Notably, the O-H stretching peak exhibited no significant shift, implying that the hydrogen-bond network strength at the electrode surface remained stable under varying potentials.\u003csup\u003e31\u003c/sup\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the presence of water, the in-situ IRAS spectra exhibit significant changes. At high potential (0.30 V ~ 0.70 V vs. SCE), the methanol O-H stretching vibration peak shifts to 3280 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e, indicating that trace water strengthens the interfacial hydrogen-bond network. A new O-H peak emerges at 3350 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e, corresponding to the phenolic hydroxyl group vibration of RB under low potential conditions (OCP ~ 0.25 V vs. SCE). The result reveals RB molecular enrichment on the electrode surface. These findings demonstrate that trace water not only optimizes RB electrooxidation thermodynamics but also promotes RB accumulation and increases interfacial RB concentration, thereby enhancing reaction kinetics.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe effect of the potential on the shifting of the stretching vibration peak of O-H was the further investigated. As illustrated in\u0026nbsp;Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 12, the electrooxidation potential of RB is demonstrated under in-situ IRAS testing conditions. In the absence of water, the RB electrooxidation potential was observed at 0.35 V vs. SCE. Upon increasing the potential beyond this threshold, the infrared O-H stretching peak remained stable at approximately 3304 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e without significant deviation (Fig. 3f). These results indicate that voltage elevation under water-free conditions induces negligible variation in interfacial RB concentration. The electrooxidation potential of RB was lowered by water addition (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 12), with a significant oxidation current appearing at 0.30 V vs. SCE. As the potential increased (ocp ~ 0.25 V vs. SCE), a notable shift in the infrared spectral profile was observed, with the O-H stretching vibration peak representing the phenolic hydroxyl group manifesting at 3350 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e and assuming a dominant position. As the potential exceeded 0.30 V vs. SCE, RB electrooxidation initiated, causing RB consumption and interfacial concentration decrease. The electrooxidation process induced methanol's O-H stretching peak resurgence at 3280 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e and broadened the absorption spectrum through methanol-phenolic hydroxyl band overlap. These observations suggest that trace water modulates the hydrogen-bond network, leading to preferential RB enrichment on the electrode surface. The elevated RB concentration at the interface enhances electrooxidation kinetics, thereby improving reaction efficiency.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn summary, trace water addition regulates the methanol hydrogen bond network, modifies the solvent shell of the reactant, and facilitates hydrogen bond interaction between water and the hydroxyl group in -COOH. These effects reduce the proton transfer energy barrier of the carboxyl group, promotes O-H bond dissociation, and optimizes RB electrooxidation thermodynamics. Furthermore, trace water induces RB enrichment at the electrode/electrolyte interface, increases interfacial RB concentration, and enhances RB electrooxidation kinetics. Simultaneously optimizing the thermodynamics and kinetics of RB electrooxidation achieves high yield with improved functional-group compatibility (Fig. 3g).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA possible mechanism for electrooxidation of Rifamycin B is shown in Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 13.\u003csup\u003e44\u003c/sup\u003e Upon applying potential, rifamycin B undergoes single-electron transfer at the electrode surface to generate an aryl radical cation. This cation is captured by the substrate’s carboxyl group, accompanied by proton transfer. Trace water forms hydrogen bonds with RB's carboxyl groups, lowering the proton transfer barrier of carboxylic acid groups. These effects facilitate cationic intermediate capture by the carboxyl groups. The resulting aryl radical is further oxidized at the electrode, followed by phenolic hydroxyl deprotonation to afford the product. At the cathode, H₂O reduction yields OH⁻ and H₂; OH⁻ migrates across the anion exchange membrane into the anode chamber, neutralizing H⁺ from the anode and stabilizing the pH to inhibit RO hydrolysis.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cstrong\u003eS\u003c/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eystematic optimization and scale-up application of flow electrolyzer.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/strong\u003eInherent mass transport limitations in batch electrolyzers restrict the scalability of RB electrooxidation. Without stirring, the current density decreased significantly as the number of cyclic voltammetry (CV) cycles increased (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 14). In contrast, stirring maintained stable current density throughout CV cycling. These results demonstrate that enhanced mass transfer is critical for achieving the scalability of RB electrooxidation. A flow electrolyzer was conducted to enhance mass transfer and enable scalable electrooxidation (Fig. 4a,\u0026nbsp;Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 15). Fig. 4b presents the structural diagram of the continuous flow electrolyzer, employing both continuous flow and intermittent production methods for RB electrooxidation. Operation of the flow system (Fig. 4c) increased RB oxidation current density from 6.8 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e to 51.7 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e, representing a 7.6-fold increase. This improvement reduces reaction time, minimizes the hydrolysis of RO, accelerates substrate exchange on the electrode surface, and reduces the risk of peroxidation.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFig. 4d illustrates the yield and conversion rate of rifamycin B at varying current densities in flow electrolyzer. The flow electrolyzer system achieved 94% yield with ~100% conversion at 10 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e, surpassing the 90% yield and 99% conversion observed in the batch H-type electrolyzer at 5 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e (entry 1). These results demonstrate that process intensification improves both current density and RB electrooxidation efficiency. Increasing the current density resulted in a reduction of rifamycin O yield (88% at both 30 and 40 mA/cm²), which can be attributed to RO peroxidation under high potential conditions. Further current increases (50-100 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e) exacerbated yield losses, adversely affecting RB electrooxidation. Screening experiments identified 10 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e as the optimal efficiency current density, though this low current density poses scaling up production challenges. Increasing the current density results in a higher formation of by-products, making it challenging to achieve an optimal balance between space time yield and selectivity.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo resolve the apparent contradiction between space time yield and selectivity, product and byproduct evolution was analyzed at 40 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e (Fig. 4e). HPLC identified key byproducts at 24 minutes (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 3). RO yield increased rapidly with charge input during the initial reaction phase, while peroxide formation showed a more gradual growth. As theoretical time (600s, blue area) (theoretical time 825s) approached, the production rate of RO slowed down significantly (pink line), while the formation rate of peroxide products gradually increased (green line). Notably, between 900-1000 s (Q=40 C), only 2% RB conversion occurred (theoretical Q=6.6 C for 2% conversion), with most electrons diverted to peroxide generation. The HPLC chromatogram inset in Fig. 4e reveals significantly intensified peroxide peaks from 600 to 1000 s. The high current is indicative of a faster interfacial charge transfer rate, which requires a sufficiently elevated substrate concentration to meet the necessary interfacial electron exchange rate. During mid-to-late reaction stages, declining substrate concentration leads to insufficient interfacial reactant supply for continuous electron transfer. This causes charge accumulation at the electrode, raising the local potential and promoting RO peroxidation, thereby reducing product yield.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stage electrolysis method effectively resolves the trade-off between space time yield and selectivity. As demonstrated in Fig. 4f, this approach employs an initial high current density (40 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e) to accelerate electrooxidation, followed by reducing the current to 10 mA/cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e to suppress peroxide formation. The final RO yield reached 93%, comparable to direct low-current electrolysis (Fig. 4g). Remarkably, the space time yield of 12.0 kg/(m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e·h) significantly exceeds that of batch H-type electrolysis (1.0 kg/(m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e·h)) and flow direct electrolysis (4.8 kg/(m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e·h)) (Fig. 4h). These results validate current-regulated electrochemical reaction kinetics as a viable strategy to minimize byproducts and optimize process outcomes.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn electrochemical systems, diaphragm selection critically alters the electrolyte environment in cathodic/anodic regions, thereby modulating reaction effect. RB yield varies significantly with different diaphragms (Fig. 4i): BPM and AEM achieve 93% and 94% yields respectively, whereas PEM yields only 77%. HPLC analysis under PEM conditions revealed substantial RS formation due to RO hydrolysis under acidic conditions. As shown in Fig. 4j, post-electrolysis pH shifts markedly: PEM decreases from pH 1.3 to 0.6, while BPM and AEM increase to 1.6 and 1.8 respectively. These results demonstrate that anode-region pH variations are the key determinant of yield differences across AEM, PEM, and BPM systems.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs shown in the RB anodization reaction (RB → RO + 2H\u003csup\u003e+\u003c/sup\u003e + 2e\u003csup\u003e-\u003c/sup\u003e), H⁺ accumulation at the anode lowers pH, promoting RO hydrolysis and reducing yield. In the AEM system (Fig. 4i, red area), OH\u003csup\u003e-\u003c/sup\u003e migration from the cathode neutralizes anodic H\u003csup\u003e+\u003c/sup\u003e during electrolysis, stabilizing pH and delaying RO hydrolysis to maximize yield. Conversely, in PEM systems (Fig. 4k, blue area), K\u003csup\u003e+\u003c/sup\u003e migration impedes H⁺ transport from the anode,\u003csup\u003e45\u003c/sup\u003e causing continuous pH decrease and RO hydrolysis, thereby lowering yield. BPM achieves comparable yields to AEM due to similar H⁺ neutralization mechanisms. Given BPM operational challenges, AEM was selected for further investigation. Therefore, by optimizing the membrane material to regulate the pH in the anode region, and thereby influencing the anode reaction, this is a useful strategy.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the impact of the cathode solution on the anode reaction was taken into consideration. RB yields showed 2% variation (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 16a) at varying NaOH concentrations (0.5-3 M) in the cathode. Higher NaOH concentrations increased the cathode region chemical potential, driving OH⁻ migration into the anode region and raising its pH (Supplementary\u0026nbsp;Fig. 16b). At 3 M NaOH, the post-reaction anode pH reached its maximum (pH 1.8 vs. initial 1.3), effectively suppressing RO hydrolysis and improving yield. The multi-parameter optimization strategy provides critical insights for scaling up RB electrooxidation processes.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;To assess the scalability of the rifamycin B electrooxidation process (Fig. 5a), a large-scale flow electrolyzer with 40-fold increased electrode area (10 cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e → 400 cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e; Fig. 5b-c, Supplementary Fig. 17) was operated under continuous flow. Stage electrolysis reduced total reaction time while suppressing RO hydrolysis and overoxidation (Fig. 5d). During the initial phase, a constant current of 16 A was applied, yielding a cell voltage around of 3.20 V. Upon reaching 645 s, the current was decreased to 4 A to mitigate over-oxidation, accompanied by a voltage drop to 2.10 V. A pronounced voltage surge served as the reaction termination criterion. HPLC analysis confirmed 99% RB conversion with 89% yield. High-purity rifamycin O (99.3% by HPLC) was obtained with 82% isolated yield via sequential rotary evaporation and cooling recrystallization. Furthermore, the large-scale flow electrolyzer achieves a space time yield of 36.7 kg/(m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e·h), which significantly surpasses the performance of the small-scale flow electrolyzer (12.0 kg/(m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e·h), 3.06-fold) (Fig. 5e).

The cell voltage during constant current electrolysis was monitored. The magneton was stirred to ensure uniform mixing of the reaction solution, and a peristaltic pump was employed to pump electrolytes into the reaction system. At the end of the reaction, the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator until a small amount of solid was produced. The solution was then cooled and recrystallized in order to obtain the product, rifamycin O. The yield of product was determined by HPLC and measured by external standard method.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cstrong\u003eIn situ electrochemical IRAS measurement\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn situ infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) measurements were performed on ThermoFisher Nicolet iS50 (dector: MCT/A; number of scans:32; moving mirror speed: 1.8988).

Here, we report an electrochemical synthesis strategy achieving RO production via electrooxidation of rifamycin B (RB) resulting in a 92% high yield. Trace water addition improves the functional-group compatibility during RB electrooxidation, substantially elevating the RO yield by 10%. Mechanistic studies reveal that trace water regulates methanol's hydrogen bond network, facilitates the dissociation of the hydroxyl group in the carboxylic acid, and enriches RB at the electrode/electrolyte interface, thereby achieving thermodynamic and kinetic synergistic optimization of RB electrooxidation. Systematic optimization of flow electrolyzer parameters further improves performance. The scale-up experiment with an electrode area of 400 cm\u0026sup2; electrode demonstrates high yield and space time yield. The present work establishes the electrochemical synthesis of RO, providing a sustainable paradigm for pharmaceutical electrosynthesis.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Functional-Group Compatible Electrooxidation Synthesis of Key Antibiotic Intermediate Rifamycin O","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2025-07-29 21:18:46","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-7115804/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"
