1. Efficient Synthesis and Analysis of Chiral Cyanohydrins
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the development of new methods for efficient synthesis and analysis in asymmetric catalysis. It focuses on the preparation of chiral cyanohydrins by enantioselective addition of cyanide to prochiral aldehydes. LÄS MER
2. New Methods for Chiral Cyanohydrin Synthesis
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with method development in asymmetric catalysis and specifically syntheses of enantioenriched O-functionalized cyanohydrins. The first part describes the development of a method for the synthesis of O‑alkoxycarbonylated and O-acylated cyanohydrins. LÄS MER
3. Development and Studies of the Processes Involved in Minor Enantiomer Recycling
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the development and rationalization of processes involved in a new methodology developed in our group, minor enantiomer recycling.The first part of the thesis addresses mechanistic studies of one of the reactions involved in minor enantiomer recycling, dual Lewis acid-Lewis base catalyzed acetylcyanation of aldehydes. LÄS MER
4. Ash chemistry and fuel design focusing on combustion of phosphorus-rich biomass
Sammanfattning : Biomass is increasingly used as a feedstock in global energy production. This may present operational challenges in energy conversion processes which are related to the inorganic content of these biomasses. As a larger variety of biomass is used the need for a basic understanding of ash transformation reactions becomes increasingly important. LÄS MER
5. Impact of Secondary Interactions in Asymmetric Catalysis
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with secondary interactions in asymmetric catalysis and their impact on the outcome of catalytic reactions. The first part revolves around the metal-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction and how interactions within the catalyst affect the stereochemistry. LÄS MER
