SET processes in Lewis acid–base reactions: the tritylation of N-heterocyclic carbenes

Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Cristian Pezzato, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Zhaowen Dong

Reactions between N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and the trityl cation, [Ph3C]+, give covalent adducts of type [NHC–CPh3]+ and/or [NHC–C6H5–CPh2]+. EPR spectroscopy, UV-Vis analyses, and trapping experiments imply that adduct formation involves carbene rad ...

Chiral N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands for Asymmetric Catalysis

Johannes Diesel

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are the ligands of choice in a large variety of transformations entailing different transition metals. However, the number of chiral NHCs suitable as stereocontrolling ligands in asymmetric catalysis remains limited. In parti ...

Numerical investigation of the mixed-mode failure of snow

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Dominika Mulak

The failure of a weak snow layer underlying a cohesive slab is the primary step in the release process of a dry snow slab avalanche. The complex and heterogeneous microstructure of snow limits our understanding of failure initiation inside the weak layer, ...

Facile N-functionalization and strong magnetic communication in a diuranium(v) bis-nitride complex

Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain, Luciano Barluzzi

Uranium nitride complexes are of high interest because of their ability to effect dinitrogen reduction and functionalization and to promote magnetic communication, but studies of their properties and reactivity remain rare. Here we have prepared in 73% yie ...

Developing Reactions of Strained Rings : Enantioselective Desymmetrization of meso-Diaminocyclopropanes and Annulation of Donor-Acceptor Aminocyclobutanes

Daniele Perrotta

Carbo- and heterocyclic structures containing nitrogen-substituted stereocenters are recurrent structural motifs in natural and bioactive compounds, therefore constituting a privileged class of synthetic targets. In this regard, substituted three- and four ...

Dyes, Radicals and Nitrous Oxide Adducts Derived from N-Heterocyclic Carbenes

Léonard Yannick Maurice Eymann

N-Heterocyclic carbenes are able to form covalent adducts with nitrous oxide (N2O) under ambient conditions. This thesis summarizes the studies of these adducts and their reactivity. A ditopic carbanionic N-heterocyclic carbene was found to react with nit ...

Stereoselective synthesis of alkenes via base-metal-catalyzed addition reactions to alkynes and activation of hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide by iron complexes

Fedor Zhurkin

Alkene functionality can be found in the majority of natural products, drugs, catalysts and organic materials. Therefore, methods of C-C double bond formation constitute a cornerstone of organic synthesis. Selective formation of either (Z)- or (E)-isomer i ...
