  2. 1. Transition Metal-Catalyzed Redox Reactions : A Journey from Homogeneous Ruthenium to Heterogeneous Palladium Catalysis

    Author : Oscar Verho; Jan-Erling Bäckvall; Manfred Reetz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : The first part of the thesis covers the development and utilization of electronically modified (pentaarylcyclopentadienyl)Ru-complexes in the racemization of secondary alcohols. This study revealed that the electronic properties of the substrate were the main factors dictating whether β-hydride elimination or hydride re-addition becomes the rate-determining step of the racemization process.

  4. 2. Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Cluster-Based Catalysts for Asymmetric Reactions

    Author : Ahmed Fawzy; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymmetric synthesis; hydrogenation; ruthenium; osmium; rhenium; phosphine ligands; chirality.;

    Abstract : Synthesis and characterization of new transition metal carbonyl clusters has been undertaken, and evaluation of the new clusters to act as catalysts/catalysts precursor in asymmetric reactions has been carried out. The catalytic hydrogenation of tiglic acid under relatively mild conditions, using diastereomeric clusters of the general formula [(µ-H)2Ru3(µ3-S)(CO)7(µ-1,2-L)] (L= chiral diphosphine of the ferrocene-based Walphos and Josiphos families) as catalysts, reveal different catalytic behavior in terms of conversion and enantioselectivity.

  5. 3. Homogeneous and heterogeneous Cp*Ir(III) catalytic systems : Mechanistic studies of redox processes catalyzed by bifunctional iridium complexes, and synthesis of iridium-functionalized MOFs

    Author : Greco González Miera; Belén Martín-Matute; Matt Clarke; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; catalysis; bifunctional; metal-ligand cooperation; amine alkylation; Hammett; kinetics; acceptorless alcohol dehydrogenation; MOF; transition metal; synchrotron; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : The purpose of this doctoral thesis is to investigate and develop catalytic processes mediated by iridium(III) complexes. By understanding the mechanisms, the weaknesses of the designed catalysts can be identified and be overcome in the following generation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Advances in Stereoselective Palladium(ΙΙ)-Catalyzed Oxidative Transformations of Allenes

    Author : Daniels Posevins; Jan-Erling Bäckvall; Troels Skrydstrup; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synthesis; Palladium Catalysis; Allenes; Biomimetic; Carbocyclization; Borylation; Carbonylation; Oxidation; Heterogeneous; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Palladium(ΙΙ)-catalyzed carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation via selective C-H bond oxidation constitutes a step-economical and versatile approach towards complex target molecules. This thesis has been focused on the development of new selective palladium(ΙΙ)-catalyzed transformations of allenes under oxidative conditions catalyzed by either homogenous or heterogeneous palladium(ΙΙ) catalysts.

  7. 5. Reduction of the N2O Emission from Fluidized Bed Combustion by Afterburning

    Author : Lennart Gustavsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; chemical modelling; fuel injection; nitrous oxide; fluidized bed combustion; fluidized beds; afterburning; homogeneous heterogeneous reactions; N2O reduction; fluidized bed boiler; N2O emissions;

    Abstract : A method for reducing N2O emissions from fluidized bed combustion is presented and investigated. In contrast to flame combustion, fluidized bed combustion generates significant amounts of nitrous oxide (N2O) which are emitted to the atmosphere. READ MORE
