Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Reduced to the max</bold>: Halogenated polycyclic hydrocarbons can be reduced with calcium via two different pathways yielding radical anions due to electron transfer into the π*‐orbital or Grignard‐type reagents due to insertion of Ca into the carbonhalogen bond (see figure).<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg2bfjn9w6" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
