Abstract

Welcome to radical catalysis: Radicals are tamed in transition-metal complexes which serve as catalysts for a number of reactions - Kumada couplings (see scheme), highly regioselective cobalt-catalyzed eliminations, Markovnikov additions, and reductive epoxide openings catalyzed by a titanium/rhodium system. All of these reactions are powered by the high reactivity of radical intermediates in the catalytic cycle of the metal-catalyzed process.
