The 5-endo-trig radical closure has emerged as an ideal method for the fast aseembly of five-membered rings. It is believed to be kinetically disfavored due to the stereoelectronic disadvantages, so it is recognized as a disfavored process according to the Baldwin-Beckwith rules. Despite the challenges, continuous efforts have been devoted to develop effective strategies that enable 5-endo-trig radical cyclization. The recent advances on 5-endo-trig closure of 4-pentenyl radicals are summarized and the common strategies for accelerating the cyclization are analyzed, which will be valuable for the design and development of novel radical 5-endo-trig processes.

Key words: radical, 5-endo-trig cyclization, five-membered rings, conformational constraint, polar effect
