Abstract

Sequential hydrolysis and photoinduced decarboxylation of methyl aliphatic esters lead to efficient generation of alkyl radicals under mild conditions. The generated alkyl radicals react with a variety of reagents to produce addition, reduction, and substitution products. In addition, the new tin and halogen free process for alkyl radical generation is applicable to a variety of aliphatic esters including those of dipeptides, steroids, saccharides, and lactones.
