Synthesis and Applications of Ynimines and Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Artatrovirenol A

The first chapter of this thesis describe the development of a general synthesis of ynimines, an under-exploited motif in organic chemistry. In the presence of an inexpensive copper catalyst and 2,2'-biquinoline, reaction of easily accessible O-acyloximes ...

Asymmetric (CpRh)-Rh-x(III)-Catalyzed Acrylic Acid C-H Functionalization with Allenes Provides Chiral gamma-Lactones

Nicolai Cramer, Shouguo Wang

A chiral cyclopentadienyl (Cp-x) ligand featuring the semi-saturated H8-binaphthyl backbone as the chiral element was developed. Its application potential was demonstrated by (CpRhIII)-Rh-x-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization of acryl acids and allenes, e ...

Catalytic Enantioselective Ring-Opening Reactions of Cyclopropanes

Jérôme Waser, Bastian Antoine Rodolphe Claude Muriel, Vincent Géry C Pirenne

This review describes the development of enantioselective methods for the ring opening of cyclopropanes. Both approaches based on the reaction of nonchiral cyclopropanes and (dynamic) kinetic resolutions and asymmetric transformations of chiral substrates ...

Photocatalytic Umpolung of N- and O-substituted alkenes for the synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols and diols

Jérôme Waser, Stefano Nicolai, Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos

We report an organophotocatalytic 1,2-oxyalkynylation of ene-carbamates and enol ethers using Ethynyl BenziodoXolones (EBXs). 1-Alkynyl-1,2-amino alcohols and diols were obtained in up to 89% yield. Photocatalytic formation of radical cations led to Umpolu ...

Copper(I) Based Photoredox Chemistry

Murat Alkan

Photoredox catalysis has become a powerful tool for chemists. However, the reliance on expensive Ir and Ru based photoredox catalysts (PC) motivates research for more sustainable options. Copper complexes based on favorable photophysical properties, high a ...

Probing Substrate Scope with Molecular Volcanoes

Matthew Wodrich, Boodsarin Sawatlon

Molecular volcano plots, a tool generally used to identify ideal catalysts for a given chemical transformation, are employed in an alternative fashion to examine the substrate scope by revealing the range of substrates that can be accommodated by a single ...

Copper-Catalyzed Oxyalkynylation of C-S Bonds in Thiiranes and Thiethanes with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Jérôme Waser, Guillaume Dominique Pisella, Julien Aymeric Borrel

We report the oxyalkynylation of thiiranes and thietanes using ethynylbenziodoxolone reagents (EBXs) to readily access functionalized building blocks bearing an alkynyl, a benzoate, and an iodide group. The reaction proceeds with high atom efficiency most ...

Catalyst support and solvent effects during lignin depolymerization and hydrodeoxygenation

Jeremy Luterbacher, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel

We studied and compared the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) and depolymerization of aldehyde-stabilized lignin and 4-propylguaiacol (PG), a model lignin monomer. We demonstrated by liquid phase adsorption that PG HDO catalyzed by Ru/C can be achieved in isooctane ...

Intricacies of Cation-Anion Combinations in Imidazolium Salt-Catalyzed Cycloaddition of CO2 Into Epoxides

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Florent Menoud, Martin Hulla, Dmitry Vasilyev, Sami Manoubi Armand Chamam

The cycloaddition of CO2 into epoxides catalyzed by imidazolium and related salts continues to attract attention due to the industrial importance of the cyclic carbonate products. The mechanism of the imidazolium-catalyzed transformation has been proposed ...

"Palladium-Catalyzed Diamination of Alkynes in Synthesis of Tetracycles" and "Copper-Catalyzed Cyanoalkylation of Unactivated Alkenes"

Minh Tu Ha

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 ...
