Efficient and selective oxidation of ethylene glycol is challenging due to uncontrollable C-C bond cleavage. We propose an electrochemical strategy for the selective electrooxidation of ethylene glycol to sythesise lactic acid on a Ni-based electrocatalyst by controlling the pH value of the electrolyte solution.
