Abstract

Abstract: Aryl radicals, pivotal intermediates in myriad chemical reactions due to their distinct electronic structure and remarkable reactivity, present formidable challenges in terms of efficient generation and directed transformation. This paper highlights recent advancements where chemists have effectively tackled this challenge by harnessing rapidly evolving photochemical and electrochemical techniques, enabling their use in diverse C―H arylation processes among other syntheses. The innovative substrate activation methods and subsequent reaction control strategies not only enrich the undergraduate curriculum in radical chemistry but also deepen students’ comprehension of radical reaction mechanisms.

Key words: Aryl radical, Photoelectrocatalysis, Single electron transfer
