Oxidative Cyclization Reactions: Controlling the Course of a Radical Cation‐Derived Reaction with the Use of a Second Nucleophile1. Issue 49 (19th November 2013) - Redden, Alison
Abstract Construction of new ring systems: Oxidative cyclizations (see picture; RVC=reticulated vitreous carbon) have been conducted that use two separate intramolecular nucleophiles to trap an enol ether‐derived radical cation intermediate. The reactions provide a means for rapidly trapping the radical cation intermediate in a manner that avoids competitive decomposition reactions.
