  1. 1. Olefins from carbonyls : Development of new phosphorus-based cross-coupling reactions

    Author : Nicolas Daniele D'Imperio; Sascha Ott; Carlos Romero-Nieto; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; olefins; carbonyl olefination; phosphaalkenes; stereoselective synthesis; Wittig; Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons; McMurry;

    Abstract : Olefins, compounds containing C=C double bonds, are omnipresent in nature and serve as useful starting materials for various chemical modifications. Olefins are of crucial importance in Medicinal Chemistry and are also present in essential objects like dyes, polymers and plastics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Enantio- and Regioselective Iridium-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Olefins : From Development to Total Synthesis

    Author : Cristiana Margarita; Pher Andersson; Xavier Verdaguer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymmetric hydrogenation; Iridium; Regioselectivity; Kinetic resolution; Total synthesis; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis concerns the iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of cyclic olefins and allylic alcohols for the preparation of useful chiral intermediates with various substitution patterns. The strategy provides stereocontrol for both non-functionalized as well as functionalized substrates and aims to be implemented in the stereoselective preparation of chiral building blocks having more than one stereocenter.

    Abstract : This thesis describes three types of reactions that were carried out using iridium catalysts.The first type is the iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins. In paper I, the preparation of a new type of bicyclic thiazole-phosphine based iridium complex was described. READ MORE
