Fluorine-containing heterocycles play a crucial role in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials industries. The pursuit of effective and sustainable synthesis methods has dri­ven the development of electrochemistry as a compelling alternative to conventional chemical transformations. Among these approaches, electrochemistry has emerged as a particularly promising technique for orchestrating multibond-forming processes under mild, environmentally benign conditions. This review highlights key advances over the past decade in the electrochemical synthesis of fluorinated heterocyclic compounds, encompassing bimolecular, trimolecular, and tetramolecular reactions. Emphasis is placed on multicomponent cascade strategies, radical-mediated couplings, and oxidant-free cyclizations that afford broad functional group tolerance and fluorine incorporation flexibility. Collectively, this work serves as a resource for researchers developing next-generation sustainable synthetic platforms tailored to fluorinated heterocycles with diverse structural and biological profiles.
