Abstract

Recent times have witnessed an enormous expansion in the use of free-radical methods in organic synthesis. This has come about due mainly to our increased understanding of free- radical processes4 and the ready availability of new precursors and reagents designed specifically for radicalbased~ yntheses.~ We now have at our disposal high yielding free- radical methods which give rise to unprecedented levels of regio-and diastereocontrol in ...
