1. Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones : Catalyst development and mechanistic investigation
Abstract : The development of ligands derived from natural amino acids for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of prochiral ketones is described herein. In the first part, reductions performed in alcoholic media are examined, where it is found that amino acid-derived hydroxamic acids and thioamides, respectively, are simple and versatile ligands that in combination with [RhCp*Cl2]2 efficiently catalyze this particular transformation.

2. Pulmonary surfactant proteins B and C : molecular organisation and involvement in respiratory disease
Abstract : Lung surfactant is a complex mixture of phospholipids and proteins with the main function to reduce the surface tension at the alveolar air/liquid interface. Surfactant protein B (SP-B) and C (SP-C) are hydrophobic but unrelated in structure, and probably have unique functional roles in the formation of the surface-active monolayer. READ MORE

3. Synthesis of nucleotide, peptide and lipid containing molecular tools for life science studies
Abstract : This thesis is based on five parts. The first and second chapters describes two synthetic routes, employing different protecting group strategies for synthesis of uridine 3'-(ethyl, 2-ethoxyethyl, 2-chloroethyl, 2,2-dichloroethyl and 2,2,2-trichloroethyl) phosphate. READ MORE
