2-C-Methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate is a key intermediate in the mevalonate independent pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. In order to investigate the fate of the protons in this metabolic route, [3,5,5,5-2H4]-2-C-methyl-D-erythrit

Neutral organic super electron donors (SEDs) display impressive reducing power but, until now, it has not been possible to use them catalytically in radical chain reactions. This is because, following electron transfer, these donors form persistent radical cations that trap substrate-derived radicals. This paper unlocks a conceptually new approach to super electron donors that overcomes this issue, leading to the first catalytic neutral organic super electron donor.
