The electrochemical methods have a huge synthetic potential in both academia and industry. However, the implementation of electrochemistry for the synthesis of organometallic compounds is presented limitedly, while the sustainability and greenness of the electrochemical protocols allow considering them as a very promising and intriguing approach. This review summarizes the most important and practically useful advances in the electrochemistry of organometallics with the emphases on the direct electrochemical synthesis of organometallic derivatives by the formation of a carbon–metal bond, electrosynthesis of organic compounds mediated by in situ generated organometallics as well as cyclic voltammetry and related techniques, applied for analysis and preparation of organometallic compounds.
