The generation of alkyl radicals was achieved by direct visible-light excitation of the organoborate complex, which was designed and synthesized from 'boracene,' which has a boron atom in the ...

The two radicals combine via the SH2 reaction to make the new, quaternary group at the end of the alkyl chain. How neatly the reaction worked surprised the team, MacMillan says.

Two-photon, red light uncaging of alkyl radicals from organorhodium(iii) phthalocyanine complexes. Chemical Communications , 2022; DOI: 10.1039/D2CC03672J Cite This Page : ...

Most of the Y-series-based polymer acceptors have been produced utilizing two A′-core types: benzotriazole (BTA) and benzothiadiazole (BT). However, it has been found that the BTA core may provide ...

A radical new method has just been added to the C–H activation toolbox. In a new Nature paper, Song Lin and his group at Cornell University describe how frustrated radical pairs can make a handy ...
