Tandem radical reactions of carbon monoxide, isonitriles, and other reagent equivalents of the geminal radical acceptor/radical precursor synthon
Article Abstract:
Tandem radical reactions are synthetic transformations increasingly used in organic chemistry. A frequently used approach to tandem radical reactions involves alkenes, alkynes, or other multiple bonds as vicinal radical acceptor/radical equivalents for the construction of geminal carbon-carbon bonds. This review focuses on the reagents of the geminal radical acceptor/radical precursor synthon and the chemical pathways involved in tandem radical reactions.

Tandem reactions in organic synthesis: novel strategies for natural product elaboration and the development of new synthetic methodology
Article Abstract:
Cascade reactions are transformations involving two or more reactions following one another for the construction of synthetic systems with increased molecular complexity. A challenge to cascade reactions is the minimization of synthetic steps. This review focuses on attempts to design a 'one-pot' sequence for the creation of biologically important natural substances. The discussion includes proposed solutions to synthetic problems in tandem reactions.

Diyl trapping and electroreductive cyclization reactions
Article Abstract:
The possibility of using diyl trapping reactions in organic synthesis particularly in the creation of naturally occurring materials containing one or more five-membered rings is investigated. Discussion focuses on the application of these reactions to the cycloaddition process. The usage of the intramolecular electroreductive cyclization process in natural product synthesis is also examined.
