2. 1. Aspects on the Regio and Stereo Selectivity in the Hydrolsilylation of 1,3-Dienes

   Author : Magnus Gustafsson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metallorganisk kemi; Organometallic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Organic chemistry; Lewis acid; electrophilic ring closure; asymmetric hydrosilylation; reaction conditions; isoprene; regioselectivity; oxygen; Wilkinsons catalyst; 15N-1H-HMQC; 31P; heterobidentate ligands; catalyst; palladium; epoxy-allylsilanes; rhodium complexes; dienes;

   Abstract : This thesis is a summary of four papers concerning various aspects on the transition metal catalysed hydrosilylation of 1,3-dienes. The hydrosilylation reaction is formally an addition of a hydrosilane to an unsaturated system and depending on the reaction conditions, control of stereo-, regio-, and chemo-selectivity can be achieved.

4. 2. Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones : Catalyst development and mechanistic investigation

   Author : Katrin Ahlford; Hans Adolfsson; Martin Wills; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymmetric catalysis; reduction; amino acid; rhodium; mechanistic investigation; kinetic study; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

   Abstract : The development of ligands derived from natural amino acids for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of prochiral ketones is described herein. In the first part, reductions performed in alcoholic media are examined, where it is found that amino acid-derived hydroxamic acids and thioamides, respectively, are simple and versatile ligands that in combination with [RhCp*Cl2]2 efficiently catalyze this particular transformation.

6. 4. Asymmetric Formation and Isomerization of Three-Membered Rings : Catalyst Development and Evaluation

   Author : Sophie Bertilsson; Tobias Rein; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; allylic alcohol; α-amino acid derivative; aza-Diels-Alder reaction; aziridination; cyclopropanation; desymmetrization; epoxide rearrangement; kinetic resolution; lithium amide; rhodium-carboxylate; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

   Abstract : Enantiopure α-amino acid derivatives were prepared using a protocol which allows for highly controlled regio- and chemoselectivity in the hydrogenation/ hydrogenolysis of aza-Diels-Alder adducts. One of the resulting α-amino esters, (1S,3R,4R)-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, was utilized further as a catalyst precursor. READ MORE

7. 5. Deactivation of commercial three-way catalysts: Experimental and theoretical studies

   Author : Anna Fathali; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; car exhaust; three-way catalyst TWC ; alumina; fuel-cut; palladium; ; hydrocarbon cracking; ceria; deactivation; oxygen storage capacity OSC ; rhodium; zirconia; sintering; monolith catalyst; catalysis;

   Abstract : This PhD thesis is a summary of my work with thermal deactivated commercial three way catalysts (TWCs). An examination of catalytic properties, before and after accelerated aging was performed, such as light-off temperature, specific surface area (BET), noble metal dispersion and oxygen storage capacity was performed.
