This thesis describes our explorations on phase-transfer catalyzed nucleophilic radical substitution (SRN1) reactions to construct vicinal quaternary carbon-carbon bonds, which cannot be easily accessed by other methods. Up to now, most enantioselective organic radical reactions are conducted under...
