  2. 2. Allylic alcohols and aziridines from alkenes : Studies in asymmetric catalysis

    Author : Mikael J. Södergren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Enantioselective; allylic alcohols; epoxide rearrangement; lithium amides; desymmetrization; kinetic resolution; allylic oxidation; alkenes; aziridination; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : The development of methodology for asymmetric catalytic transformation of alkenederivatives is summarized. The studies concern the [a] Cu(I)-catalyzed allylic oxidation,[b] isomerization of epoxides to allyl alcohols, and [c] Cu(I)-catalyzed alkeneaziridination, respectively.[a] The preparation of exo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.

  3. 3. Oxidative Trifluoromethylation and other Functionalization Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes

    Author : Pär Janson; Kálmán Szabó; Antonio Togni; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; palladium; copper; transition metal; trifluoromethylation; catalysis; acetoxylation; difunctionalization; oxidation; mechanistic study; alkenes; alkynes; quinones; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the use of various potent oxidants in organic synthesis. The main focus is directed at selectively introducing trifluoromethyl groups into compounds containing double or triple bonds. All reactions proceed under mild conditions and can in most cases be performed on the bench-top. READ MORE

  4. 4. Asymmetric Hydrogenations of Imines, Vinyl Fluorides, Enol Phosphinates and Other Alkenes Using N,P-Ligated Iridium Complexes

    Author : Jarle Sidney Diesen; Pher G. Andersson; Kálmán J. Szabó; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; Catalysis; Asymmetric; Hydrogenations; Reductions; Alkenes; Imines; Vinyl fluorides; Enolphosphinates; Transition metal; Complexes; Iridium; Organisk kemi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : The research described in this thesis is directed toward the efficient, enantioselective synthesis of chiral products that have useful functionality. This goal was pursued through catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation, a reaction class that selectively introduces one or two stereocenters into a molecule in an atom-efficient step. READ MORE

  5. 5. Alkylate Petrol. Environmental Aspects of Volatile Hydrocarbon Emissions

    Author : Ulf Östermark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrocarbons; small engines; alkylate; alkenes; ethene; benzene; 3-butadiene; two-stroke engines; reformulated petrol; reformulated gasoline; 1;

    Abstract : All hydrocarbons emitted from production and use of petrol are hazardous to human health and the environment, but to a different extent for individual compounds. This thesis compares and characterizes C2-C8 hydrocarbons related to alkylate petrol and conventional petrol. READ MORE
