Abstract

Free-radical intermediates have received greater attention over the past three decades owing to their ability to form carbon–carbon as well as carbon–heteroatom bonds under mild and neutral conditions. The main focus of this review is the free-radical additions reactions to C–C and C–X multiple bonds. The evolution of synthetic methodologies involving radical addition processes that can control both relative and absolute stereochemistry has been remarkable. Recent advances in Lewis acid-catalyzed and organocatalyzed free-radical additions have been discussed.
