Anti-Markovnikov radical hydroxychlorination of alkenes enabled by amine-promoted chlorine radical generation
{{output}}
A transition-metal-free protocol for the regioselective synthesis of β-chlorohydrins from alkenes, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (TCE) and TBHP was developed under mild conditions. This method employs TCE as a chlorine atom donor and TBHP as a hydroxyl radical so... ...
