Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions: A Radical Alternative to SN1 and SN2 Reactions
Northside
Caltech chemist Gregory Fu reveals how radical chemistry could rewrite the textbook on nucleophilic substitution reactions. This free lecture dives into cutting-edge research on enantioconvergent variants that classical SN1 and SN2 methods can't touch.
