The speed and precision of machine-learning (ML) techniques in determining quantum chemical properties has resulted in a considerable computational speed up in comparison to traditional quantum chemical methods, and now allows a desired property of thousan ...
This paper describes the synthesis of Pd-containing catalysts based on nonfunctionalized hypercrosslinked polystyrene via impregnation with Pd acetate. Developed Pd nanoparticulate catalyst allowed achieving conversion of aryl halide up to 90% in Suzuki cr ...
CONSPECTUS: Ligand development plays an essential role in the advance of homogeneous catalysis. Tridentate, meridionally coordinating ligands, commonly termed pincer ligands, have been established as a privileged class of ligands in catalysis because they ...
This work is addressed to the phenomenon of catalyst deactivation taking place during the repeated uses in the reaction of Suzuki-Miyaura (S-M) cross-coupling, which is widely applied in industry for C-C bond formation. Ligandless catalysts based on Pd(0) ...
Among the numerous existing chemical motifs, alkenes, alkynes, enol ethers and enamides, with an unsaturated carbon-carbon bond, are versatile functional groups that are found in many natural products and bioactive compounds. They are widely used as valuab ...
C-C and C-N bonds are some of the most common structures in molecules ranging from drugs to catalysts and to food additives. Many coupling reactions were developed to form these types of bonds with excellent selectivity and good performance. Still, the syn ...
A new procedure for the synthesis of highly substituted 1,3-diaminopyrazoles is described. As substrates, we have employed 1-alkynyltriazenes and imines. The formation of pyrazoles was achieved by two-fold C–N coupling reactions in the presence of (JohnPho ...
The synthesis of catalytically active bimetallic Au-Pd nanoparticles stabilized in hyper-cross-linked polystyrene (HPS) for Suzuki cross-coupling of 4-bromoanisole (4-BrAn) and phenylboronic acid is presented. The core-shell structure with a thin (less tha ...
Alkyl amines are an important class of organic compounds in medicinal and materials chemistry. Until now very have been very few methods for the synthesis of alkyl amines by metal‐catalyzed cross‐coupling of alkyl electrophiles with nitrogen nucleophiles. ...
This thesis describes the utilization of nitrous oxide N2O as an oxidant in oxidative cou-pling reactions and as a nitrogen atom donor in the synthesis of 1-alkynyltriazene and further reactivity of the latter. An overview of N2O and its reactivity is give ...
