Practical metal- and additive-free methods for radical-mediated reduction and cyclization reactions

Abstract

Two facile, metal- and additive-free protocols for radical dehalogenation, deoxygenation and cyclization reactions are reported. Irradiation by household fluorescent light bulbs or the presence of an air atmosphere is shown to initiate the desired reactions, thus providing highly practical reaction setups for radical-mediated reductions and cyclizations.
