Complexation Strategies towards Challenging Group 9 Metal Cyclopentadienyl Scaffolds

Aragorn Nathan Laverny

Cyclopentadienyl (Cp) metal complexes and their chiral counterparts (CpX) have enabled the development of challenging C-H activation transformations. While major progresses were made in developing new chiral CpX complexes and exploring their reactivity, th ...

Umpolung Of Electron-Rich Heteroarenes With Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Jérôme Waser, Raj Kumar Nandi

Five-membered heterocycles are well known for their innate nucleophilicity. In contrast, reaction of these heterocycles as electrophiles is less established and has become only recently an intensively investigated research area in synthetic chemistry. The ...

New Vinylation and Alkynylation Strategies with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Diazo Compounds

Guillaume Dominique Pisella

The development of a sequential copper-catalyzed oxy-alkynylation/intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of allenes and arenes was investigated at first. This one-pot protocol allowed the construction of complex polycylic architectures with high efficiency fro ...

Enhanced Treatment of Municipal Wastewater Effluents by Fe-TAML/H2O2: Efficiency of Micropollutant Abatement

Urs von Gunten

Combining iron with a tetraamido-macrocyclic ligand (Fe-TAML) as a catalyst and with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the bulk oxidant is a process that has been suggested for the oxidative abatement of micropollutants during water treatment. In this study, the ...

α-Oxo-Ketenimines from Isocyanides and α-Haloketones: Synthesis and Divergent Reactivity

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Mathias Mamboury

The palladium-catalyzed reaction of a-haloketones with isocyanides afforded -oxo-ketenimines through alpha-hydride elimination of the beta-oxo-imidoyl palladium intermediates. Reaction of these relatively stable alpha-oxo ketenimines with nucleophiles suc ...
