Scheme 6.

Scheme 6.

Illustrations of radical-polar crossover mechanisms via (A) an oxidative quenching cycle and (B) a reductive quenching cycle. RP = radical progenitor, PC = photocatalyst, SET = single electron transfer, using alkenes as the radical acceptor in the initial radical-substrate bond forming event. E and C denote electron transfer and chemical steps, respectively, in the mechanism.
