Chemists are now moving away from volatile, environmentally
harmful, and biologically incompatible organic solvents. With its
low cost, ready availability, and capacity to remove
environmentally unfriendly by-products, water is an obvious
replacement. Recent advances in free radical chemistry in water
have expanded the versatility and flexibility of homolytic
carbon-hydrogen, carbon-carbon, carbon-halogen, carbon-nitrogen
bond formations in aqueous media. This textbook highlights the
substantial progress which has been made in the last decade to
"tame" the reactive free radical species in aqueous phase
reactions. It describes carbon-hydrogen bond formations in aqueous
media via radical reactions with a specific focus on HAT (Hydrogen
Atom Transfer). Suitable for students of chemistry, industrial
chemists and academic researchers, it combines extensive knowledge
of free radical chemistry with the latest innovations and creative
applications. Divided into five main areas, it covers the:
generation of carbon centred free radicals; radical initiators;
solubility of substrate; suitability of free radical hydrogen
donors, and HAT reactions in aqueous media. The book describes
radical reactions in organic and aqueous media and their
applications in total synthesis, DNA structural probing, isotope
labelling, living polymerization and various other applications. It
shows that, armed with an elementary knowledge of kinetics and some
common sense, it is possible to harness radicals into tremendously
powerful tools for solving synthetic problems. Written with the
needs of students in mind, it offers just the right level of detail
for undergraduate study. All the basic principles and facts on each
topic area are presented in a concise yet comprehensive style that
is appropriate for both core and specialist courses. It provides a
step-wise introduction, taking students from the basic principles
of radical reactions through to their applications in industry and
their role in biological and environmental processes. Case studies
are used to illustrate reactions in landmark synthesis and
problems, with outlined answers, test the reader's understanding.
