Abstract

The effectiveness of a synthetic reaction depends very much upon its selectivity. A good test is to examine such reactions on polyfunctional molequles of which naturally occurring compounds, because of their diversity of structure, provide excellent examples. In this chapter are provided examples of free radical reactions being used at essential stages in the synthesis of, and also in the modification of functional groups in, such molecules.
