Aromatic, Heteroaromatic, and Fluoroaromatic Compounds

  • Chapter
Free Radicals in Organic Synthesis

Part of the book series: Reactivity and Structure: Concepts in Organic Chemistry ((REACTIVITY,volume 7))

Abstract

A variety of aromatic compounds have been prepared by various procedures in which an aryl radical substitutes in another aromatic nucleus. Usually a mixture of positional isomers results, the separation of which is often difficult. The field of study is known as homolytic aromatic substitution, and several comprehensive reviews on the subject are available [1–7]. For this reason the chapter will concentrate on the general features of the reactions that have proved to be of synthetic value.
