1. Asymmetric Hydrogenations : Syntheses of Ligands and Expansion of Substrate Scope
Sammanfattning : Asymmetric hydrogenation has emerged as a versatile methodology to obtain a wide range of chiral precursors. This thesis focused on the synthesis of new chiral ligands and the expansion of the substrate scope of asymmetric hydrogenations. LÄS MER
2. Ruthenium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation
Sammanfattning : This thesis covers the development of two new methods for the asymmetric reduction of ketones and ketone intermediates. The protocols developed are based on the use of a ruthenium pseudo-dipeptide catalyst that previously has been shown to be efficient and selective in the asymmetric reduction of carbonyl compounds. LÄS MER
3. Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones : Catalyst development and mechanistic investigation
Sammanfattning : The development of ligands derived from natural amino acids for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of prochiral ketones is described herein. In the first part, reductions performed in alcoholic media are examined, where it is found that amino acid-derived hydroxamic acids and thioamides, respectively, are simple and versatile ligands that in combination with [RhCp*Cl2]2 efficiently catalyze this particular transformation.

4. Towards Rational Design of Asymmetric Catalyst for Organometallic and Organocatalytic Reactions
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with synthetically modified chiral molecules and their application in asymmetric catalysis. The first part of the thesis describes the use of commercially available chiral diamine ligands in the iridium catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones. LÄS MER
5. Enzymatic Reduction of Ketones
Sammanfattning : Methods have been studied for the production of chiral alcohols, which are of importance in organic synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agro-chemicals and fragrances, etc., through the enzymatic or microbial reduction of ketones. LÄS MER
