A unified mechanistic framework for DDQ-promoted transformation of electron-deficient alkenes: the addition-coupled electron transfer (ACET) perspective
High-level computations and experiments reveal that DDQ–alkene oxidations operate on an ACET–AdE2 continuum, providing the first experimental validation of ACET and redefining electron-transfer reactivity beyond the SET paradigm.
