Novel Applications of Nitrous Oxide and Transition Metals for C-C and C-N Bond Formation

This thesis describes novel methods for and investigations into C–C and C–N bond formation reactions. Chapter 1 gives a very brief overview of established strategies for the formation of new C–C bonds in organic synthesis. In chapter 2, a multi‐step one‐po ...

Cyclization and annulation reactions of nitrogen-substituted cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes

Jérôme Waser, Filippo De Simone, Fides Benfatti, Florian Patrick Marie Daniel De la Barre De Nanteuil, Reto Frei, Eloísa Sofía Serrano Robledo

Cyclization and annulation reactions initiated by ring-opening of small rings, especially cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes are now well-established in synthetic chemistry. Nevertheless, the potential of aminocyclopropanes and cyclobutanes, an important subcl ...

Adsorption of thioether molecules on an alumina thin film

Wolf-Dieter Schneider

Low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy has been employed to study the adsorption of (bis(3-phenylthio)-phenyl)sulfane (BPPS) molecules on an aluminum-oxide film grown on NiAl(110). Large variations in the molecular coverage on incompletely oxidized ...

Sequential ATRA-Reductive Cyclopropanation Reactions with a Ruthenium Catalyst in the Presence of Manganese

Kay Severin, Charlotte Buron

Atom-transfer radical addition (ATRA) reactions of ethyl trichloroacetate, dichloromalononitrile, or diethyl 2,2-dichloromalonate with olefins followed by dechlorination have provided functionalized cyclopropanes in one step. The RuIII complex [Cp*RuCl2(PP ...
