Abstract

Sequencing organic reactions in a single-pot process is a powerful way of designing complex molecular architectures from relatively simple starting materials. This is beautifully exemplified in the use of cascade reactions in free radical 1 chemistry and organopalladium chemistry 2 for organic synthesis. Our background in cascade reactions 3 includes the TTF-mediated radical−polar crossover sequence 3b and nitration sequences that highlight cationic ...
