2 Back Ground of Radical Structure In a modern context the first organic free radical identified was triphenylmethyl radical. This species was discovered by Moses Gomberg in 1900 at the University of Michigan. C Gomberg, M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1900, 22,

26 Conclusion Through the application of radical chemistry, valuable functional group transformations and challenging carbon-carbon bond construction can be achieved under usually mild reaction condition. Radical reactions are powerful, one-pot strategies for the synthesis of complex polycyclic molecules. Carbon-centered radicals are also highly reactive intermediates that add to carboncarbon π bonds via early, reactant-like transition states. Tandem or sequential radical cyclizations can offer exceedingly concise solutions to challenging problems in organic synthesis.
