Synthesis and Applications of Ynimines and Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Artatrovirenol A

Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

The first chapter of this thesis describe the development of a general synthesis of ynimines, an under-exploited motif in organic chemistry. In the presence of an inexpensive copper catalyst and 2,2'-biquinoline, reaction of easily accessible O-acyloximes ...

Streamlined Alkylation via Nickel-Hydride-Catalyzed Hydrocarbonation of Alkenes

Xile Hu, Srikrishna Bera, Zhikun Zhang, Chao Fan

Compounds rich in sp(3)-hybridized carbons are desirable in drug discovery. Nickel-catalyzed hydrocarbonation of alkenes is a potentially efficient method to synthesize these compounds. By using abundant, readily available, and stable alkenes as pro-nucleo ...

Synthesis of new 1-Vinyl and 1-Alkynyl Triazenes

Carl Thomas Bormann

The recent discovery of an N2O-based synthesis of triazenes in our group has enabled the synthesis and investigation of 1-alkynyl triazenes. Early studies showed their potential for a functional group tolerant synthesis of 1-vinyl triazenes, which is furth ...

Palladium Catalysed Intramolecular Carbo-oxygenation of Propargylic Amines to Access 1,2-Amino Alcohols and alpha-Amino Ketones via in situ Tether Formation

Phillip Gulliver Dominic Greenwood

a-Amino ketones and 1,2-amino alcohols are important structural motifs in organic chemistry, that can be observed in natural products, pharmaceutically and bioactive compounds. For these reasons, they constitute privileged targets for the development of ne ...

Catalytic valorization of the acetate fraction of biomass to aromatics and its integration into the carboxylate platform

Jeremy Luterbacher, Benjamin Pierre Le Monnier, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago, Jher Hau Yeap, Bartosz Rozmyslowicz

In many plant species, the acetate fraction is the fourth most prominent fraction by weight after cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, and can be easily extracted as a single stable molecule, acetic acid, at high yields. Despite this, upgrading the acetate ...

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 ...

Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of non-activated alkyl halides catalyzed by well-defined nickel pincer complexes

Thomas Clément Di Franco

Metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are powerful and widespread methods for the carbon-carbon bond formation. Among the electrophile partners, non-activated alkyl halides remain challenging substrates because of their reluctance towards oxidative addi ...

Catalytic C-C Bond Activations via Oxidative Addition to Transition Metals

Nicolai Cramer, Laetitia Marie Mélanie Souillart

Selective cleavages of carbon-carbon bonds catalyzed by transition-metal complexes have been shown to be increasingly versatile tools for organic synthesis allowing for complementary synthetic strategies. Numerous examples of transition-metal catalyzed C-C ...

Catalytic Formal Homo-Nazarov Reaction and Other Cyclizations of Cyclopropanes : from Methodology to Total Synthesis

Filippo De Simone

The increasing progress in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology requires more versatile synthetic strategies for the generation of libraries of active compounds and theirs analogues. A wide range of biologically active natural and synthetic compounds c ...

Ruthenium-Catalyzed Synthesis of 1,5-Dichlorides by Sequential Intermolecular Kharasch Reactions

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Aurélien Godinat, Katrin Anne Thommes

Sequential intermolecular atom transfer radical addition reactions of activated dichlorides Cl2CRR′ (R = CN, CO2Et, R′ = H, CN, CO2Et) with two olefins catalyzed by [Cp*RuCl2(PPh3)] in the presence Mg allow the synthesis of linear 1,5-dichlorides. Differen ...

Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Docking Studies of Casuarine Analogues: Effects of Structural Modifications at Ring B on Inhibitory Activity Towards Glucoamylase

Pierre Vogel

We report the total synthesis of a series of pyrrolizidine analogues of casuarine (1) and their 6-O-alpha-glucoside derivatives. The synthetic strategy is based on a totally regio- and stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of suitably substituted alken ...

Supramolecular triruthenium cluster-based benzene hydrogenation catalysis: Fact or fiction?

Gabor Laurenczy

The question is addressed of whether the triruthenium cluster cation Ru-3(mu(2)-H)(3)(eta(6)C(6)H(6))(eta(6)-C6Me6)(2)(mu(3)-O), 1, is a supramolecular, outer-sphere benzene hydrogenation catalyst or is 1 a precatalyst to well-known Ru(0)(n) catalysis ...
