Dual Photoredox and Copper Catalysis: Enantioselective 1,2-Amidocyanation of 1,3-Dienes

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Dan Forster, Weisi Guo

Dual photoredox−transition-metal catalysis has emerged as a powerful tool for the development of chemical transformations. However, its application in the selective difunctionalization of 1,3-dienes remains essentially unexploited. By the synergistic actio ...

The acid-mediated isomerization of iridium(iii) complexes with cyclometalated NHC ligands: kinetic vs. thermodynamic control

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Anastasia Gitlina

The isomerization of iridium(III) complexes with metalated N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands was studied. The fac isomers of complexes with 1-phenyl-3-methylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene or 1-phenyl-3-benzylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene ligands are transformed cl ...

Rh(III)-Catalyzed C-H Functionalizations as Strategies for Versatile Organic Building Blocks

Van Manh Pham

Transition-metal catalyzed C-H functionalizations have impacted and changed synthetic approaches towards the construction of relevant complex molecules, comprising natural products, active pharmaceutical ingredients, and organic materials. This thesis desc ...

Ligand-Controlled Regiodivergent Pathways of Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Dihydroisoquinolone Synthesis: Experimental and Computational Studies of Different Cyclopentadienyl Ligands

Nicolai Cramer, Matthew Wodrich, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Jérôme Florian Gonthier, Baihua Ye

Rh-III-catalyzed directed C-H functionalizations of arylhydroxamates have become a valuable synthetic tool. To date, the regioselectivity of the insertion of the unsaturated acceptor into the common cyclometalated intermediate was dependent solely on intri ...

Total Synthesis of Cyrneine A

Karl Gademann, Cindy Fellay

The tricyclic diterpene cyrneine A featuring a hexatrienal unit was prepared synthetically for the first time by a Heck reaction, a carbene ring expansion, and a reductive carbonylation. The structure of the natural product was assigned by X‐ray crystal an ...

Novel Approaches for Ruthenium Catalyzed Atom Transfer Radical Addition Reactions

Katrin Anne Thommes

A new catalytic procedure for atom-transfer radical addition (ATRA) and cyclization (ATRC) reactions is described. The combination of the ruthenium(III) complex [RuCl2Cp*(PPh3)] with magnesium allows these reactions to be performed under mild conditions wi ...

Role of Adsorbed H, C, O, and CO on the Atomic Structure of Free and MgO(100)-Supported Ir-4 Clusters: An ab Initio Study

Alfonso Baldereschi, Zeljko Sljivancanin, Vladan Stevanovic

We applied density functional theory based on ultrasoft pseudopotentials to study the structural properties of Ir-4 clusters both in the gas phase and adsorbed on a MgO(100) surface. To resolve the discrepancy between experimental data which suggest a tetr ...

Electrochemical modification of the catalytic activity of TiO2/YSZ supported rhodium films

Christos Comninellis, György Foti

The electrochemical activation of ethylene oxidation was studied over rhodium catalysts of different thickness (40, 100 and 160 nm) sputtered on top of a thin layer of TiO2 deposited on YSZ. The strong relationship between catalytic activity and oxidation ...

In situ NMR characterisation of an intermediate in the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 and HCO3– in aqueous solution

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy

The water soluble ruthenium(II) complex [RuCl2(PTA)([9]aneS3)] (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphadamantane, [9]aneS3 = 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane) catalyzes the hydrogenation of CO2 and bicarbonate in aqueous solution. ...

Promoting Role of [PtI2(CO)]2 in the Iridium-Catalyzed Methanol Carbonylation to Acetic Acid and Its Interaction with Involved Iridium Species

Gabor Laurenczy

The catalytic activity of the iridium complexes involved in methanol carbonylation is significantly enhanced when the carbonyliodoplatinum dimer [PtI2(CO)]2 (10') is added to the reaction mixt. Under CO this complex readily affords th ...
