iodide, ester, hydroxy and electronꢀrich arenes were compatible
with the reaction conditions. Radical cyclization and radical clock
experiments suggested that the reaction proceeds through a free
radical process. Our ongoing efforts focus on its application in
organic synthesis and the results will be reported in due course.
