  1. "...Mg(OAc)2 outcompetes the interaction between Ag and the #aldehyde, thereby tuning the Ag surface for selective product formation. Data are consistent with an increased population of Mg-bound aldehyde facilitating the addition of a carbon-centred radical (product of Ag-electrocatalysed organic halide reduction) to the #carbonyl. #Electron transfer from Ag to the resultant alkoxy radical yields the desired alcohol."
