New Blatter-type radicals from a bench-stable carbene (2017)
Journal Article
Grant, J. A., Lu, Z., Tucker, D. E., Hockin, B. M., Yufit, D. S., Fox, M. A., …O'Donoghue, A. C. (2017). New Blatter-type radicals from a bench-stable carbene. Nature Communications, 8, Article 15088. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms15088

Stable benzotriazinyl radicals (Blatter’s radicals) recently attracted considerable interest as building blocks for functional materials. The existing strategies to derivatize Blatter’s radicals are limited, however, and synthetic routes are complex.... Read More about New Blatter-type radicals from a bench-stable carbene.
