Stereoselective synthesis of di-and trisubstituted alkenes via intermolecular addition of vinyl radicals to alkenes

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0040-4039(94)88522-2

Vinyl radicals, generated from the reaction of vinyl iodides with tributylstannyl radical, react with electron-deficient alkenes to give di- or trisubstituted alkenes in moderate to good yields. The stereoselectivity is largely dependent on the substituen
