Mixed-halide triphenyl methyl radicals for site-selective functionalization and polymerization

RSC Advances, vol. 11, pp. 27653–27658

Abstract

-bromide. The mixed halide radicals give access to complex, and so far inaccessible luminescent open-shell small molecules, as well as polymers carrying the radical centers in their backbone. The new mixed-halide triphenyl methyl radicals represent a powerful building block for customized design and synthesis of stable luminescent radicals.
