Functionalized thiosemicarbazone ligands and their complexes
(MDPI, 2016)The purpose of this work is the design, synthesis and characterization of thiosemicarbazone ligands bearing a phenyl boronic acid functionality. The main interest is the synthesis of organopalladium compounds with the ... -
Gold(I)-Catalyzed Intermolecular Cycloaddition of Allenamides with α,β-Unsaturated Hydrazones: Efficient Access to Highly Substituted Cyclobutanes
(American Chemical Society, 2014-11-19)α,β-Unsaturated N,N-dialkyl hydrazones undergo a mild [2 + 2] cycloaddition to allenamides when treated with a suitable gold catalyst. The method, which represents the first application of N,N-dialkyl hydrazones in gold ... -
Iridium(I)-Catalyzed Intramolecular Cycloisomerization of Enynes: Scope and Mechanistic Course
(American Chemical Society, 2018-07-10)We report an Ir(I)-catalyzed cycloisomerization methodology that provides access to carbocyclic systems bearing exo-alkene moieties from alkynyl-equipped acyclic precursors. The method relies on the C–H activation of ... -
Metal-catalyzed Cyclizations to Pyran and Oxazine Derivatives
(Thieme, 2016)Pyrans are privileged heterocyclic structures found in numerous natural compounds with extraordinary biological activities. The synthesis of these relevant structures has attracted a great deal of attention over the years. ... -
New Catalytic Routes to Benzofused Seven-Membered Azaheterocycles
(2021)Benzazepines, benzodiazepines and benzoxazepines compose a privileged family of natural products and pharmaceuticals. Their remarkable biological activity made them useful drugs to treat a large variety of issues. The ... -
New synthetic routes towards 1,4- dienylboronates via catalytic alkyne allylboration reactions
(2022)In this Ph.D. thesis, the synthesis of 1,4-dienyl boronates is explored using transition metal-catalyzed methodologies. In chapter I an introduction about the most important features of organoboron compounds and the most ... -
Rhodium(III)‐Catalyzed Annulation of 2‐Alkenylanilides with Alkynes via C‐H Activation: a Direct Access to 2‐substituted Indolines
(Wiley, 2018-05-04)A Rh(III) complex featuring an electron‐deficient η5‐cyclopentadienyl ligand catalyzes an unusual annulation between alkynes and 2‐alkenylanilides, to form synthetically appealing 2‐substituted indolines. Formally, the ... -
Rhodium-Catalyzed Intramolecular [3+2+2] Cycloadditions between Alkylidenecyclopropanes, Alkynes, and Alkenes
(WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2014-07-17)A Rh-catalyzed intramolecular [3+2+2] cycloaddition is reported. The cycloaddition affords synthetically relevant 5,7,5-fused tricyclic systems of type 2 from readily available dienyne precursors. The transformation takes ... -
Tandem Long Distance Chain-Walking/Cyclization via RuH2(CO)(PPh3)3/Brønsted Acid Catalysis: Entry to Aromatic Oxazaheterocycles
(American Chemical Society, 2016)A novel route to 1,3-oxazaheterocycles based on cooperative Ru–H/Brønsted acid catalysis is reported. The use of the commercially available RuH2(CO)(PPh3)3 complex allows for an efficient long distance chain-walking process ... -
Transition metal catalysis in the mitochondria of living cells
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-09-07)The development of transition metal catalysts capable of promoting non-natural transformations within living cells can open significant new avenues in chemical and cell biology. Unfortunately, the complexity of the cell ... -
Vinyl Ruthenium Carbenes: Valuable Intermediates in Catalysis
(Springer, 2017)Vinyl ruthenium carbenes are easily prepared from the neutral Ru(II) complex Cp*RuCl(cod) in the presence of functionalized alkynes and diazoalkanes. These intermediates have been proposed for several transformations in ...
