A good understanding of the free radical reaction mechanism has led to the realization of unprecedented control over the chemo-, regio-, and diastereospecificity. The free radical chem. has transformed from the intractable to the predictable. In certain systems, radical chem. can deliver results that are far superior to those obtained from conventional ionic or organometallic methods. Some of the syntheses involving free radicals are presented
