Significance
A radical addition of arylboronic acids to various olefins is reported. The aryl radicals are generated from the boronic acid upon treatment with manganese triacetate. These radicals add to electron-poor olefins to give tetrahydronaphthalines, after renewed addition and subsequent homolytic aromatic substitution. In the presence of oxygen, the radicals add to the olefin to give arylhydroxylation products.
