These involve reactions that bypass the electron transfer processes and allow the functionalization of the heterocyclic parent systems with a broad variety of carbon- and heteroatom-based functional groups. The scope of the methodology, and its applications to organic synthesis are analyzed.", pages = "715-737(23)", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/ben/coc/2004/00000008/00000008/art00005" doi = "doi:10.2174/1385272043370690" }
