Aminocarbonylation of aryl halides is one of the most useful methods in amide synthesis, but nitroarenes have not been used as a nitrogen source in this method even though they are more economical and accessible than anilines. Reported here is the developm ...
An enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-terengganensine A, a heptacyclic monoterpene indole alkaloid, was performed. A short sequence allowed to obtain the enantio-enriched target in good overall yield. The synthesis featured a key asymmetric transfer h ...
The total synthesis of pentacyclic monoterpene indole alkaloids is the focus of this thesis.
Total syntheses of (±)-alstilobanine C, (±)-undulifoline and (±)-alstilobanine B, three natural products from the Ulean family of alkaloids, were accomplished. The ...
Vicinal amino alcohols and diamines are privileged motifs in organic chemistry. As such, they have been targets of choice for exploring and developing novel and more efficient strategies in organic synthesis. In this context, the difunctionalization of ole ...
The thesis deals with the development of transition metal-catalyzed difunctionalization of alkenes and alkynes, which can be categorized into two major topics: (1) palladium-catalyzed diamination of alkynes for the synthesis of tetracycles; (2) copper-cata ...
Transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions occupy a privileged position in chemistry because of their ability to link myriad functional groups. The numerous variants of this reaction types (e.g., Suzuki, Kumada, Negishi, etc.) differ in the transm ...
Carbo- and heterocyclic structures containing nitrogen-substituted stereocenters are recurrent structural motifs in natural and bioactive compounds, therefore constituting a privileged class of synthetic targets. In this regard, substituted three- and four ...
Owing to the problems associated with the use of urea as an ammonia precursor compound in the selective catalytic reduction process in automobiles, alternative compounds such as ammonium formate, methanamide, and guanidinium formate have been suggested as ...
Postimpregnation of Pd nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized within hyper-cross-linked polystyrene with sodium or potassium hydroxides of optimal concentration was found to significantly increase the catalytic activity for the partial hydrogenation of the C–C tri ...
Interest in base metal catalysis motivates the development of Cu-based photoredox catalysts for organic synthesis. However, only a few Cu catalysts have been applied in photoredox reactions, the majority of which contain one or two 1,10-phenanthroline liga ...
