Abstract:
Introduction. The free radical cyclisation reaction onto an unsaturated bond is a well known synthetic pathway, where a wide range of cyclic compounds can be produced form acyclic starting materials. Up until recent years, free radical addition to multiple bonds other than carbon-carbon had been little studied. Nowadays there is much information available of radical addition to carbonyl, thiocarbonyl, nitrile and oxime ether (C=NOR) functional groups. However there has been surprisingly little detailed study of similar reactions involving imines (C=NR) or hydrazones (C=NNHR). Monocyclisation.

Abstract:
Over the last forty years the steady use of radical reactions as the key steps in syntheses has increased. The most commonly used radical reagent is tributyl tinhydride. However such tin based radical reagents are toxic and often contaminate the product as they are difficult to remove. As an alternative to these tin reagents, a novel NaBH4/U.V. system was developed. This system was successfully used to effect the radical reduction of various aromatic halides. In light of these results it was thought that other useful transformations such as C-C bond formation could be achieved. Radical cyclisa

Abstract:
Oxidative DNA damage has been implicated in processes such as carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, ageing and cell death. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide (O2), hydrogen peroxide (H2O 2) and hydroxyl radical (OH*) are produced in mammalian cells as a result of aerobic metabolism. However excess generation of these species by endogenous or exogenous sources can result in damage to DNA, producing a large number of sugar and base lesions. In order to understand the biological consequences of such free radical induced damage it is essential to characterise and quantitate this damage. This

The use of tri-n-butyltin hydride and an initiator to mediate free radical cyclisation as a synthetic organic process is well documented throughout the chemical literature. By using BU3SnH, and developing new 'catalytic' BU3SnH methods, many new heterocyclic compounds have been synthesised successfully. The search for new 'tin-free' radical reagents is important in order to provide a non-toxic alternative to tin. We have started initial studies on the replacement oftriorganotin hydrides with germanium analogues. An interesting number of reactions using BU3SnH do not give reduced products and h

These generic contact lens materials were chosen simply because in the field of biomaterials their compositions are amongst the most systematically regulated and they present a wide range of compositions.
