Stereocontrolled radical cyclization reactions to yield exocyclic alkenes

The intramolecular reactions of a number of (E)- and (Z)-3-tri(n-butyl)stannyl-2-alkenoates with ω-alkyl radicals generated from alkyl iodides, epoxides, and aldehydes were investigated. These reactions were found to generate exocyclic alkenes in a stereoselective, and in some cases stereospecific,...
