Radicals in Synthesis I : Methods and Mechanisms

Radicals in Synthesis I : Methods and Mechanisms


Topics in Current Chemistry series highlights the importance of this rapidly growing area. The first volume, reviewed here, deals with development of new methods and the physical organic underpinnings of radical methodology, while the second volume addresses the applications of these methods in complex molecule synthesis. Although such a division is totally arbitrary, it provides a convenient platform to categorize this otherwise diverse area. ...A highly readable account of the generation and applications of alkene radical cations by heterolysis of ß-substituted radicals. The authors provide a detailed account of the methods of generation, kinetic and mechanistic aspects, and the eventual fate of these intermediates generated from diverse sources.
