41. Several cleverly designed conjugate additions to enones have trapped the presumed intermediates by employing internal radical traps. The yields of trapped product are typically in the range of 5-10% and in some cases the radical is unable to be intercepted: (a) Sarandeses, L. A.; Mourino, A.; Luche, J.-L. J. Chem. Soc, Chem.
