Abstract

Free radical (or “one-electron”) methodology for carbon-carbon bond forming reactions using allylstannanes is described in detail. Such reactions have the advantages of tolerating quite complex functionality in the substrate and of being nearly stoichiometric in reagents, and not requiring extensive experimentation for application to new substrates.
