Radical Stability
Can predict radical stability by looking at the bond dissociation energy
Alkyl radical : tertiary>secondary>primary Conjugating groups also stabilize radicals
Both electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups stabilize radicals

Explanation by Frontier Molecular Orbitals
Radicals have Singly Occupied Molecular Orbitals (SOMO) Most radicals are uncharged and are considered soft species

Summary – Substrate Control
Important factors for stereoselective radical reactions: allylic strain, dipole-dipole interactions, hyperconjugation, exocyclic effect and endocyclic effect
Combination of stereoselective Mukaiyama and radical reduction or allylation produced a powerful method to generate polyproprionates, tertiary and quaternary centers
