Gas/Surface reactions probed by reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy

Harmina Vejayan

In my thesis, I present an investigation of the dissociation reactions of gas phase molecules on single crystal metal surfaces studied by a molecular beam in combination with Reflection Absorption Infrared Spectroscopy (RAIRS). Two gas/surface systems were ...

Probing Water Dissociation and Oxygen Replacement on Partially Oxygen-Covered Cu(111) by Reflection Absorption Infrared Spectroscopy

Rainer Beck, Mateusz Suchodol, Harmina Vejayan

The presence of chemisorbed oxygen on the Cu(111) surface is known to strongly reduce the activation barrier for water dissociation as compared to bare Cu(111). Here, we present direct experimental evidence for the hydrogen abstraction mechanism responsibl ...

Diverting the 5-exo-Trig Oxypalladation to Formally 6-endo-Trig Fluorocycloetherification Product through 1,2-O/Pd(IV) Dyotropic Rearrangement

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Jing Gong

Pd-catalyzed cyclizative functionalization of γ-hydroxyalkenes affords tetrahydrofuran derivatives via a key 5-exo-trig oxypalladation step. Herein, we report a palladium(II)-catalyzed, Selectfluor-mediated formal 6-endo-trig fluorocycloetherification of γ ...

Enhancement of Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive by CO2 Laser Treatment

Dario Floreano, Yegor Piskarev, Jun Shintake, Vivek Ramachandran, Michael Dickey, Jianhang Yang

Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) are polymeric films that can be adhered to and detached from surfaces without leaving residue. Researchers are looking to enhance the bond strength between PSAs and different substrates. It can be achieved by tuning PSA' ...

C-C bond activation enabled by dyotropic rearrangement of Pd(iv) species

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Hua Wu, Jian Cao

The weak carbon-metal bond combined with the kinetic inertness of the carbon-carbon bond renders metal-catalysed C-C bond activation to be highly challenging. Most of the reported C-C bond activation methodologies involve strain-releasing cleavage of small ...

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of C2-Modified Analogs of the Antimycobacterial Natural Product Pyridomycin

Stewart Cole, Ruben Hartkoorn, Anthony Vocat

A series of derivatives of the antimycobacterial natural product pyridomycin have been prepared with the C2 side chain attached to the macrocyclic core structure by a C-C single bond, in place of the synthetically more demanding enol ester double bond foun ...
