Development of Highly Chemoselective Oxidative Transformations by Designing Organoradicals

摘要

To conduct organic synthesis in the field of pharmaceutical science, methodologies that can easily and quickly supply compounds with high drug-likeness are highly desirable. Based on the original catalyst design concept "Radical-Conjugated Redox Catalysis (RCRC)" established during my research, various C(sp(3))-H functionalizations and protein modifications have been developed, taking advantage of the high reactivity and chemoselectivity of the single-electron transfer process. This review focuses on the eight-year research efforts by my collaborators and me, from conception to results.
