Radical chemistry has developed an extraordinary way since the beginning of last century. Also, today there are many examples of total synthesis incorporating radical steps leading to the formation of one or even several, carbon-carbon bonds in a particularly soft, most of these applications rely on the use tin hydride. However, the potential of such species is limited by their toxicity and their tendency to reduce premature and often undesirable radical intermediates. The xanthate transfer reaction has no such limitations. This process allows for intermolecular additions of olefin traps little or non-activated and tolerates difficult cyclizations. This makes a very useful tool for training inter-and intramolecular carbon-carbon bonds and p...
