Transition Metal Activation And Functionalization Of Carbon-Hydrogen And Carbon-Carbon Bonds
- Univ. of Rochester, NY (United States); University of Rochester
This project has as its overall goal improvement in the intelligent use of our energy resources, specifically petroleum derived products, and is aimed at the development of new routes for the manipulation of C-H and C-C bonds. During this project period, our research is focused on the following general goals: (1) C-H bond activation reactions in functionalized substrates, including alkylnitriles, ketones, esters, ethers, fluoromethanes, alcohols, amines, and alkynes, and fundamental studies of their effects on metal-carbon bond strengths using trispyrazolylborate-rhodium (TpRh) complexes; (2) Hydrogenation reactions using first-row transition metals; and (3) C–CN bond activation in aryl-nitriles and allyl-nitriles.
