Abstract
The iron(III)–polypyridyl complex and its derivatives showed sufficient oxidizing potential to act as a one-electron oxidant, producing radical cations from olefins and promoting the efficient radical cation [2 + 2] and [2 + 4] cycloaddition reactions. Subsequent chain propagation afforded trisubstituted cyclobutane or cyclohexene derivatives, and this facile route enables the replacement of rare metals with sustainable, green, and inexpensive iron in radical cation cycloadditions.
