Abstract
Practical radical cyclizations using organoboronic acids and trifluoroborates take place in water, open to air, and in a scalable fashion employing catalytic silver nitrate and stoichiometric potassium persulfate. Both Pschorr-type cyclizations and tandem radical cyclization/trap cascades are described, illustrating the utility of these mild conditions for the generation of polycyclic scaffolds.
