Journal ArticleDOI
A New Radical Vinylation Reaction of Iodides and Dithiocarbonates.
TL;DR: The Heck reaction for aliphatic derivatives in which iodide and dithiocarbonate substituents are replaced by substituted vinyl groups was proposed in this paper. But the Heck reaction is not suitable for high-dimensional structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nickel Powder Promoted 5‐endo Radical Cyclizations. A Concise Approach to Erythrina Alkaloids.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Short Synthesis of (.+‐.)‐13‐Deoxyserratine.
TL;DR: In this article, a short and efficient total synthesis of (±)-13-deoxyserratine (3) features a highly stereoselective intramolecular Pauson-Khand reaction of 1 and a cascade of radical cyclizations starting with the amidyl radical 2.
Journal ArticleDOI
The xanthate route to tetralones, tetralins, and naphthalenes. A brief account.
TL;DR: The degenerative reversible transfer of xanthates allows radical addition even to unactivated, electronically unbiased alkenes, and tolerates a broad range of functional groups such as esters, ketones, nitriles, amides, carbamates, etc as discussed by the authors .
Journal ArticleDOI
Some Aspects of Radical Chemistry in the Assembly of Complex Molecular Architectures
TL;DR: In this paper, a review article describes some of the radical processes developed in the authors' laboratory as they pertain to the concise assembly of complex molecular scaffolds, focusing on the use of nitrogen-centred radicals, on the degenerate addition-transfer of xanthates, and on the generation and capture of radicals through electron transfer processes.
