Mn Fe and Co Catalyzed Radical Hydrofunctionalizations of Olefins.
Cofactor mimetic aerobic oxidation has conceptually merged with catalysis of syngas reactions to form a wide range of Markovnikov selective olefin radical hydrofunctionalizations. We cover the development of the field and review contributions to reaction invention, mechanism, and application to complex molecule synthesis. We also provide a mechanistic framework for understanding this compendium of radical reactions.
