A photoinduced, FeX3-catalyzed, stereo- and regio-selective halofunctionalization of olefins with MXn via a radical-polar crossover reaction

The classical reaction for the halofunctionalization of olefins involves hazardous and highly toxic molecular halogens. The goal of chemists is to establish green, inherently safe, highly efficient and sustainable synthetic methods. Here, we report a green approach for the halofu...
