   Abstract : Mechanistic studies on three different ruthenium-based catalysts have been performed. The catalysts have in common that they have been employed in hydrogen transfer reactions involving alcohols and ketones, amines and imines or both. READ MORE

6. 4. Hydrogenation, Transfer Hydrogenation and Hydrogen Transfer Reactions Catalyzed by Iridium Complexes

   Author : Xu Quan; Pher Andersson; Jonathan Williams; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Iridium catalyst; carbene; N; P - ligand; asymmetric hydrogenation; transfer hydrogenation; hydrogen transfer reaction; alkylation; olefin; ketone; amide; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

   Abstract : The work described in this thesis is focused on the development of new bidentate iridium complexes and their applications in the asymmetric reduction of olefins, ketones and imines. Three new types of iridium complexes were synthesized, which included pyridine derived chiral N,P-iridium complexes, achiral NHC complexes and chiral NHC-phosphine complexes. READ MORE

7. 5. Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer from Hydrogen-Bonded Phenols

   Author : Tania Irebo; Leif Hammarström; James M. Mayer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Proton-coupled electron transfer; phenol oxidation; hydrogen bonds; artificial photosynthesis; promoting vibrations; proton transfer; laser flash-quench; transient absorption.; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical Chemistry;

   Abstract : Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) is one of the elementary reactions occurring in many chemical and biological systems, such as photosystem II where the oxidation of tyrosine (TyrZ) is coupled to deprotonation of the phenolic proton. This reaction is here modelled by the oxidation of a phenol covalently linked to a Ru(bpy)32+-moitey, which is photo-oxidized by a laser flash-quench method. READ MORE
