Abstract: SmI2-catalyzed radical cascade cyclizations were used to generate complex carbocyclic products bearing quaternary stereocenters with high selectivity. Bicyclic scaffolds containing four contiguous stereocenters and one quaternary stereocenter were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%)… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/molecules27248673
Abstract: Samarium diiodide is a versatile single electron transfer (SET) agent with various applications in organic chemistry. Lewis structures regularly insinuate the existence of a ketyl radical when samarium diiodide binds a carbonyl group. The study… read more here.
