1. Crystallization of Metal Fluoride Hydrates from Mixed Acid Solutions
Abstract : In this work crystal growth and nucleation of b-FeF3×3H2O and crystallization of chromium (III), iron (III) and nickel (II) fluoride hydrates from mixed acid (1-3 mol/kg HNO3 and 1-6 mol/kg free HF) have been investigated. The solubility of b-FeF3×3H2O has been determined in solutions of different hydrofluoric acid (1-7mol/ kg) and nitric acid (0-7mol/ kg) concentrations at 30, 40 and 50°C. READ MORE

2. Development and Studies of the Processes Involved in Minor Enantiomer Recycling
Abstract : This thesis describes the development and rationalization of processes involved in a new methodology developed in our group, minor enantiomer recycling.The first part of the thesis addresses mechanistic studies of one of the reactions involved in minor enantiomer recycling, dual Lewis acid-Lewis base catalyzed acetylcyanation of aldehydes.

3. New Methods for Chiral Cyanohydrin Synthesis
Abstract : This thesis deals with method development in asymmetric catalysis and specifically syntheses of enantioenriched O-functionalized cyanohydrins. The first part describes the development of a method for the synthesis of O‑alkoxycarbonylated and O-acylated cyanohydrins. READ MORE

4. Lewis Acid Mediated Alkylation and Diels-Alder Reactions of 2H-Azirines
Abstract : This thesis describes the use of 2H-azirines as reactivesubstrates in Lewis acid catalysed nucleophilic additions andin the Diels-Alder reaction.A number of carbon nucleophiles have been added to aseries of 2H-azirines in the presence and absence ofBF3·Et2O. READ MORE

5. Lanthanide-mediated C-F Bond Activation Method Development and Mechanistic Investigation
Abstract : The use of transition-metals and main-group Lewis acids has proven to be an outstanding source for activation and subsequent functionalization of fluorinated compounds. However, the first is mainly limited to C(sp2)–F bonds which partially are activated by an adjacent heteroatom, and the latter is limited to simple C(sp3)–F bonds due to particularly strong Lewis acid character.
