ABSTRACT

A rapid and highly efficient method for the radical formation using potassium alkylfluoroborates as radical precursor is devised and developed which conducts under relatively mild condition using silver(I) oxide as the oxidant. The observed silver mirror phenomenon hints at the fact that Ag2O is the real oxidant. This approach effectively overcomes the drawbacks-stringent reaction conditions and poor tolerance of a variety of functional groups.
