Recent advances in free radical chemistry in water have expanded the versatility and flexibility of carbon-hydrogen bond formation in aqueous media. This review highlights the substantial progress which has been made in the last decade to ''tame'' the reactive free radical species in aqueous phase reactions and highlights choices, reasons and applications of the methodology.
