  1. 1. Carboligation using the aldol reaction : A comparison of stereoselectivity and methods

    Author : Derar Al-Smadi; Mikael Widersten; Ulf Nilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aldol reaction; cinchonine; FSA enzyme; homologation reactions; phenylacetaldehyde derivatives; samarium diiodide.;

    Abstract : The research summarized in this thesis focuses on synthesizing aldehyde and aldol compounds as substrates and products for the enzyme D-fructose-6-aldolase (FSA). Aldolases are important enzymes for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in nature. READ MORE

  2. 2. Novel Pincer Complex-Catalyzed Transformations : Including Asymmetric Catalysis

    Author : Juhanes Aydin; Kálmán J. Szabó; Oleg V. Ozerov; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pincer; palladium; catalysis; chiral; asymmetric; palladium IV; allylation; aldol; aminoacid; C-H functionalization; cross-coupling; homoallylic; heck reaction; tridentate ligand; Chemistry; Kemi; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis is focused on the development of new pincer complex-catalyzed transformations. Optimization of the catalytic properties (fine-tuning) was directed to increase the catalytic activity as well as the chemo-, stereo- and enantioselectivity of the complexes. READ MORE
