General Description
1-Ethylpiperidine hypophosphite promotes the carbon-carbon bond forming radical reactions in both aqueous and organic media. EPHP plays an important role of a good chain carrier during the radical addition of
gem-dihalocompounds to electron-deficient olefins. It has been reported as a suitable radical reducing agent for organic halides.
