Asymmetric nucleophilic catalysis with planar-chiral DMAP derivatives and chiral phosphines : synthetic and mechanistic studies
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
Chapter 1 describes the development and detailed mechanistic investigation of the first non-enzymatic method for the dynamic kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols via enantioselective acylation, with acetyl isopropyl ...
Palladium-catalyzed C-N cross-coupling and application to the synthesis of delayed singlet emitters for OLED development
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
The studies in the present dissertation were aimed at developing and applying synthetic methods mediated by palladium catalysis. In Chapters 1 and 2, the palladium-catalyzed amidation and amination of five-membered ...
