Direct radical functionalization methods to access substituted adamantanes and diamondoids

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: .). Recent advances in the area of selective C-H functionalization are highlighted with an emphasis on the H-atom abstracting species and their ability to activate the particularly strong C-H bonds that are characteristic of these caged hydrocarbons, providing insights that can be applied to the C-H functionalization of other substrate classes.
