Directing Transition Metal Catalysis of Second and Third Row Metals through Ligand Design
Description:
Ligand design is important due to a ligand's ability to tune properties of the transition metals, such as catalytic activity and selectivity. Gold(I) catalysts can be directly impacted by ligands electronically as well as with steric bulk when undergoing enantioselective and regioselective reactions. In the dissertation, a series of gold(I) acyclic diaminocarbenes were synthesized and used to explore the 1,6 enyne cyclization/hydroarylation. The use of metal templated synthesis of the gold(I) a…
