1. Functional and Modular As=C and P=C Group Motifs
Sammanfattning : This work focuses on the design, synthesis, characterization, and application projections of low-coordinated heavy pnictogen-containing (described by the generic letter E, hence E=C) phosphaalkenes (P=C) and arsaalkenes (As=C), with emphasis on the E=C group motifs. The work aims to understand their functional and modular character, reactivity, and potential applications by stabilizing, isolating, and characterizing these species in low-coordination environments.

2. C–H and Si–H functionalization using redox-active diazo compounds and decarboxylative coupling
Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis is based on two basic organic chemistry concepts: carbene catalysis and radical coupling reactions. Diazo compounds in the presence of transition-metal catalysts are known to be excellent reagents for the construction of C–X bonds (X = C, Si, N, O, etc.) under mild conditions. LÄS MER
3. Asymmetric Synthesis using Redox-Active Diazocompounds as Chiral Carbon Atom Precursors
Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes the development of general and efficient methods to synthesize enantiomerically enriched cyclopropane compounds. The works reported herein exploit the opportunity presented by redox-active esters to explore the orthogonality between asymmetric carbene-transfer and geminal radical generation. LÄS MER
4. Towards the Development of Photoswitchable β-Hairpin Mimetics
Sammanfattning : Peptide secondary structure mimetics are important tools in medicinal chemistry, as they provide analogues of endogeneous peptides with new physicochemical and pharmacological properties. The β-hairpin motif has been shown to be involved in numerous physiological processes, among others in regulation of eucariotic gene transcription. LÄS MER
5. Development and Mechanistic Studies of Molecularly Defined Water Oxidation Catalysts : Catalysts for a Green and Sustainable Future
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the development of complexes that are active catalysts for H2O oxidation. Promoting proton-coupled electron transfer has been a highly important feature in the development of these catalysts. LÄS MER
