This video introduces you to the 3 steps of radical reactions: initiation, propagation, and termination. You’ll learn why free radicals are so reactive and how to denote the movement of single electrons during homolytic cleavage. I’ll also show you the mechanism of each step and give you some simple ways to recognize which step you’re looking at.
