El gas hivernacle principal emès a causa del desenvolupament industrial de la nostra societat és el diòxid de carboni. Com a conseqüència, els darrers anys han estat testimonis del desenvolupament de processos per a la fixació de CO2 en molècules orgàniques. Tot i que l’ús químic del CO2 probablement no reduirà dràsticament la seva concentració a l’atmosfera, el seu baix cost i alta disponibilitat podria ajudar a substituir alguns dels processos industrials establerts que contribueixen al canvi climàtic. En particular, el grup carboxil està present en una gran quantitat de productes farmacèutics, agroquímics o plàstics, entre d’altres, fent de la seva síntesi un objectiu ideal per a l’ús químic de CO2. A diferència de les carboxilacions tradicionals de reactius organometàlics altament polaritzats i sensibles, les reaccions de carboxilació reductiva ofereixen la possibilitat d'utilitzar electròfils simples, representant una alternativa formidable, conceptualitat i practicitat a part, per a aquestes entitats nucleífiques.
Aquests estudis de doctorat s’han centrat en el desenvolupament i la comprensió de noves, senzilles i pràctiques reaccions reductives de carboxilacions per produir àcids carboxílics a partir d’electròfils barats i abundants mitjançant la catàlisi Níquel.<br>El principal gas de efecto invernadero emitido debido al desarrollo industrial de nuestra sociedad es el dióxido de carbono.

As a consequence, the recent years have witnessed the development of processes for the fixation of CO2 into organic molecules. Although the chemical utilization of CO2 will most likely not dramatically reduce its concentration in the atmosphere, its low cost and high availability could potentially help replace some of the established industrial processes that contribute to climate change. In particular, the carboxylic acid motif is present on a myriad of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals or plastics, among others, making their synthesis an ideal target for CO2 chemical utilization. Unlike traditional carboxylations of highly polarized, sensitive organometallic reagents, reductive carboxylation reactions offer the possibility to employ simple electrophiles, representing a formidable alternative, conceptuality and practicality aside, to such nuclephilic entities.
These doctoral studies have focused on the development and understanding of new, simple and practical reductive carboxylations reactions to produce carboxylic acids from inexpensive and abundant electrophiles by means of Ni-catalysis.

Recentment, les reaccions d’acoblament creuat entre electròfils s’han posicionat com a potents alternatives a les reaccions clàssiques d’acoblament creuat entre electròfils orgànics i nucleòfils organometàl•lics. Aquests acoblaments reductius presenten nombrosos avantatges degut a que utilitzen compostos de partida simples i fàcilment assequibles que eviten la necessitat de sintetitzar espècies organometàl•liques sensibles a la humitat i a l’oxigen. Com a conseqüència, els protocols experimentals són pràctics i les condicions de reacció són suaus.

Starting from readily available building blocks, reductive couplings are practical and mild protocols that circumvent the use of moisture and air-sensitive organometallic species. The ubiquity of amides in biologically relevant molecules such as peptides, agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, as well as in polymers, continually prompts the design of novel methods for amide synthesis. This Doctoral Thesis focuses on the development of novel nickel-catalyzed reductive protocols for the synthesis of amides using isocyanates as the amide synthon. Specifically, we have discovered a novel protocol for the synthesis of aliphatic amides from primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl bromides in combination with aryl and alkyl isocyanates. A methodology for the highly diastereoselective hydroamidation of alkynes with isocyanates to afford acrylamides has been developed, with alkyl bromides used as in situ and mild hydride sources. Finally, efforts towards the regiodivergent retentive and chain-walking amidation of unactivated acyclic secondary alkyl bromides are discussed. The transformations developed herein are characterized by their mild conditions, wide substrate scope and excellent chemo- and regioselectivity, and constitute novel methods for the formation of amides via metal-catalyzed C—C bond formation.

The chemistry of enolates can be considered one of the cornerstone areas in organic chemistry. Regioselective generation of an enolate in the presence of several enolisable sites can often prove to be a difficult task. Discoveries in recent years have led to new areas of enolate formation in the presence of other carbonyl groups. These include reductive aldol chemistry where direct reductive aldol coupling of an alpha,beta - unsaturated carbonyl group in presence of a carbonyl electrophile enables often perfectly regioselective reactions to occur. This tandem conjugate reductionelectrophilic trapping process enables the reaction to be performed in a “one-pot” manner. The first examples of asymmetric copper-catalysed reductive aldol reactions have been developed for the formation of a range of beta-hydroxylactone products. A combination of Cu(OAc)2.H2O with different bisphosphine ligands catalyses these intramolecular reductive aldol reactions. TMDS (1,1,3,3-tetramethylhydrosiloxane) is used as a stoichiometric hydride source. The reaction proceeds with high relative stereocontrol (>19:1 dr), while absolute stereocontrol remains modest (up to 83% ee). The yields range from moderate to good. A continuous search for improved reaction conditions led to the discovery that cobalt-catalysed reductive aldol reactions have an advantage over the coppercatalysed reaction in the cases where 4-hydroxypiperidin-2-one products are formed. When Co(acac)2·H2O is used together with Et2Zn as the stoichiometric reductant, an increased substrate scope is observed while the diastereoselectivity of the reaction remains high. Yields are also remarkably higher compared to the results obtained with the copper catalyst. These reaction conditions are also used to perform intermolecular reductive aldol reactions between a range of alpha,beta-unsaturated amides and ketones. The reactions proceed readily with high diastereoselectivities (up to >19:1 syn:anti) and good yields. Asymmetric variants have been studied by the use of a chiral oxazolidine auxiliary. Although good selectivities have been obtained, this method currently suffers from the fact that the chiral auxiliary is difficult to cleave. Ni(acac)2 was also found to perform the intramolecular reductive aldol reaction. Et2Zn was again used as the stoichiometric reductant. The nickel-catalysed reaction increased the reaction scope still further. This time both beta-hydroxylactone and 4-hydroxypiperidin-2-one products were readily formed. The former proceeded with increased yields compared to those obtained with the copper catalyst, and, the latter with comparable results to those obtained with the cobalt catalyst.

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Chemistry, 2005.<br>Vita.<br>Includes bibliographical references.<br>Chapter 1: The capability of Mo(N[t-BulAr)₃ to act as a powerful one, two, and three electron reductant have been previously demonstrated. In this work, we show that Mo(NIt-BulAr)₃ forms a metastable adduct with the moderate [pi] acid PhCN; coordination of PhCN activates the nitrile carbon towards reaction with a variety of one-electron reagents such as dichalcogenides, nitric oxide, hydrogen atom donors, cobaltocene, and elemental phosphorus. Evidence is presented for the existence of an inner-sphere electron transfer mechanism for these reactions. Chapter 2: With the facile cleavage of N₂ by Mo(Njt-Bu]Ar)₃ already established, a Mo(NIt-Bu]Ar)₃-mediated process for the incorporation of N₂ into organic molecules is an exciting prospect; its realization depends critically on the development of methods for cleavage of the Mo-N bond formed in the early stages of the process. In this chapter, we demonstrate that appropriately-substituted Mo(IV) ketiminates (synthesized using the methods of Chapter 1) undergo [beta]-elimination to cleave the Mo-N bond and liberate PhCN. We present the kinetics of the reaction, substituent effects, and-in three cases - activation parameters. Chapter 3: Deprotonation of the titanium formate complex (ArIt-BuJN)₃TiOC(O)H with LiN(i-Pr)₂ resulted in the release of free CO and the formation of a titanium(IV) oxoanion complex, isolated as its lithium salt. Chapter 4: Previous work from these labs has shown that the unique combination of well-defined composition, steric bulk, and strong reducing ability embodied in Ti(N[t- Bu]Ar)₃ lends itself particularly well to mechanistic studies of the classical Pinacol coupling.<br>(cont.) As shown in Chapter 1, a similar relationship can be drawn between Mo(NIt- BulAr)₃ and reductive nitrile coupling. In this chapter we draw on this mechanistic understanding to develop three new classes of reductive cross-couplings: nitrile is coupled with pyridine to form dihydropyridines, with benzophenone to form substituted 1,4-cyclohexadienes, and with carbon dioxide to form a-iminocarboxylates.<br>by Arjun Mendiratta.<br>Ph.D.

Modern organic chemistry strives to achieve rapid molecular complexity from simple achiral substrates. One method by which this may be achieved is with enolate formation followed by attack on an electrophile which can generate one, two or even more new stereocentres in one step. However regioselective generation of an enolate in the presence of several enolisable sites has always proved problematical. A partial answer to this problem has been provided by the development of the reductive aldol reaction. The first part of this thesis is concerned with describing a highly diastereoselective Co(II)-catalysed reductive aldol reaction between α,β-unsaturated amides and ketones. The reaction proceeds using substoichiometric quantities of cobalt(II) in the presence of a stoichiometric quantity of the reductant diethylzinc. Using both N,Ndimethyl and morpholine amides, the reactions are tolerant of substituted aromatic ketones as well as aliphatic ketones. The reaction also proceeded well when the β-carbon was substituted with both aromatic and aliphatic groups resulting in improved diastereoselection. The racemic work is followed by the development of an asymmetric version of the reaction using oxazolidinone chiral auxiliaries that impart high levels of diastereofacial selectivity. The reaction was found to proceed with a variety of aromatic ketones and once again, substitution of the β-carbon resulted in improved diastereoselectivity. Finally work on formal homo aldol cyclisations using substoichiometric quantities of Ni(II) also in the presence of a stoichiometric quantity of diethylzinc is described. This work aims to develop methodology that involves double cyclisations with the formation of up to five contiguous stereocentres. Although unsuccessful, useful conclusions for future work were made as well as the serendipitous discovery of a apparent base catalysed alternative cyclisation pathway that successfully generated two new rings and four contiguous stereocentres.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 53-55).<br>A recently developed bis-pyridinylidene neutral organic electron donor captured our interest as a potential source of new chemistries for reductive coupling and the synthesis of group IV nanoparticles. This super electron donor was used as a co-reductant for nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling of aryl halides in order for the reaction to be homogeneous and avoid the traditional co-reductant, zinc, previously reported for these Yamamoto-type dehalogenative couplings. Reductive coupling was somewhat successful for specific substrates, including 4- bromoanisole and 2,5-dibromothiophene, but competing hydrodehalogenation of the aryl halide was problematic for both expanding the substrate scope and increasing the length of the polymers generated from this reaction. The attempt to synthesize silicon and germanium nanoparticles from reduction of the corresponding tetrachloride precursors using this super organic electron donor met limited success. Dimerization of silicon species occurred, but there was little conclusive evidence of nanoparticle formation. Finally, in a brief side-project to explore other applications of the organic reductant, the molecule was shown to successfully n-dope both p-type and n-type organic electronic materials.<br>by Anna Jolene Mork.<br>S.M.

Palladium Catalyzed Reactions: Reductive Cyclization of Nitroarenes, and Oxidative Carbonylation of Aniline
Abstract:
The thesis is divided into two main chapters: reductive cyclization of nitroarenes, and oxidative carbonylation of aniline.
The first chapter involves developing a catalytic system for carbazoles synthesis through reductive cyclization of 2-nitrobiphenyls employing phenyl formate as an in-situ source of CO. Thus, the synthetic chemist can avoid handling pressurized CO lines and perform the reaction in a pressure tube, a cheap and readily available tool for any laboratory. Moreover, the developed protocol can tolerate both air and moisture and can be performed using undried and undistilled commercial DMF. Several carbazoles bearing a wide range of substituents were synthesized in good to excellent yields including some with valuable pharmaceutical or thermo/electrical applications. The reaction could be performed on the grams scale affording carbazole in a very good yield (85%) without the need for chromatographic purification, making our synthetic strategy even more attractive and economically advantageous.
The second chapter deals with the palladium/iodide couple which is the most investigated catalytic system for the oxidative carbonylation of amines to give ureas or carbamates. In reinvestigating it, we found that the most prominent role of iodide is to etch the stainless steel of the autoclave employed in most of previous works, releasing in solution small amounts of iron salts. The latter are much better promoters than iodide itself. Iron and iodide have a complex interplay and, depending on relative ratios, can even deactivate each other. The presence of a halide is beneficial, but chloride is better than iodide in this respect. The ideal Fe/Pd ratio is around 10, but even an equimolar amount of iron with respect to palladium (0.02 mol% with respect to aniline, corresponding to 12 ppm Fe with respect to the whole solution) is sufficient to boost the activity of the catalytic system. Such small amount may also come from Fe(CO)5 impurities present in the CO gas when stored in steel tanks. The role of the solvent has also been investigated. It was found that the reason for the better selectivity in some cases is at least in part due to a hydrolysis of the solvent itself, which removes the coproduced water.

A study of nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling reactions of aldehydes and chiral 1,6-enynes has provided evidence for stereospecific ligand substitution from a planar three-coordinate nickel species as a plausible explanation of regioselectivity in the nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling of aldehydes and 1,6-enynes.

Le travail de recherche concerne l'utilisation de catalyseurs à base de métaux de transition: ruthénium, iridium, cobalt, argent, pour la transformation de substrats bio-sourcés renouvelables en produits à valeur ajoutée pour l'industrie chimique et l'énergie. La transformation par transfert d'hydrogène de l'acide lévulinique en γ-valérolactone a d'abord été développée avec de nouveaux catalyseurs du ruthénium et de l'iridium porteurs d'un ligand dipyridylamine et d'un chlorure en utilisant l'acide formique comme source d'hydrogène. Puis de nouveaux catalyseurs zwitterioniques de type ruthénium et iridium(sulfato)(dipyridylamine) ont été préparés et ils ont conduit aux meilleures productivités observées pour la réduction de l'acide lévulinique en γ-valérolactone par hydrogénation directe. Sur la base des excellentes performances des complexes iridium(sulfato)dans des processus de réduction, l'amination réductrice de l'acide lévulinique et de l'acide o-formylbenzoïque a été réalisée et a permis la synthèse efficace de dérivés de type pyrrolidones, en particulier à partir d'amines primaires encombrées. La déshydrogénation sélective de l'acide formique dans des conditions douces sans additif en milieu aqueux ou en absence de solvant a été développée avec les mêmes types de catalyseurs de l'iridium porteurs du ligand modifié diméthylaminodipyridylamine. Finalement, une méthode d'hydrogénation douce de cétones a été mise en évidence en présence d'un système catalytique à base de nanoparticules d'argent générées in situ. Ce système catalytique permet d'obtenir de bonnes efficacité et sélectivité vis-à-vis d'autre groupement fonctionnels<br>This research work deals with the use of catalysts based on transition metals, such as ruthenium, iridium, cobalt, silver for transformations of renewable bio-based substrates to valuable products for applications in chemical industry and energy. The transfer hydrogenation of levulinic acid to γ-valerolactone with novel ruthenium- and iridium(dipyridylamine)chloride complexes using formic acid as hydrogen source was first developed. Then, novel zwitterionic ruthenium and iridium(sulfato)(dipyridylamine) catalysts were prepared, which displayed the highest turnover numbers reported for the reduction of levulinic acid into γ valerolactone using H₂ as hydrogen source. Based on the high catalytic performance of the iridium(sulfato)complexes in reduction processes, the efficient reductive amination of levulinic acid and o formylbenzoic acid, in particular with bulky primary amines, for the synthesis of pyrrolidone derivatives was disclosed. The selective dehydrogenation of formic acid under mild conditions in aqueous media or neat conditions without using an organic additive has been developed using iridium catalysts of the same family equipped with a modified dimethylaminodipyridylamineas ligand. Finally, an unprecedented hydrogenation of ketones in the presence of in situ generated silvernanoparticleswas discovered. High efficacy and functional group selectivity have been achieved in most cases

A class of P-chiral, ferrocenyl phosphines was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for efficacy.

II. Total Syntheses of Amphidinolides T and T4 via Catalytic, Stereoselective Reductive Macrocyclizations Total syntheses of amphidinolides T and T4 were achieved using two nickelcatalyzed reductive coupling reactions of alkynes, with an epoxide in one case (intermolecular) and with an aldehyde in another (intramolecular). The latter was used to effect a macrocyclization, form a C-C bond and install a stereogenic center with >10:1 selectivity in both natural product syntheses. Alternative approaches in which intermolecular alkyne-aldehyde reductive coupling reactions would serve to join key fragments were investigated and are also discussed; it was found that macrocyclization was superior in several respects (diastereoselectivity, yield, and length of syntheses). Alkyneepoxide couplings were instrumental in the construction of key fragments corresponding to approximately half of the molecule of both natural products. In one case (T4 series), the alkyne-epoxide coupling exhibited very high site selectivity in a coupling of a diyne.<br>(cont.)

This thesis is focused on the unexplored field of organometallic copper(III) chemistry. Arylcopper(III) complexes have been proposed as key intermediates in Ullmann condensation reactions that consist in the coupling of aryl halides and heteroatom nucleophiles catalyzed by copper. The study of the reactivity of well-defined arylcopper(III) complexes may provide a better understanding of the mechanism of Ullmann condensation reactions, which is still under intense debate. In this doctoral dissertation we study the feasibility of well-defined arylcopper(III) complexes, which are stabilized within macrocyclic ligands, to participate in C-heteroatom bond forming reactions. We develop copper-catalyzed C-N and C-O bond forming reactions, as well halide exchange reactions, including fluorinations, based on Cu(I)/Cu(III) catalytic cycle within model aryl halide substrates. We uncover the fundamental understanding of the two-electron redox steps, oxidative addition and reductive elimination, at copper.<br>Aquesta tesi es centra en el camp de la química organometàl•lica del coure(III) que roman sense explorar.

The exploration of highly active and durable cathodic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts with economical production cost is still the bottleneck to realize the large-scale commercialization of some emerging technologies, such as fuel cells and metal-air batteries. At present, the composite that contains expensive platinum (Pt) particles dispersed on a porous carbon support (e.g., activated carbon (AC)) is the most efficient ORR catalyst. In a common sense, the AC itself normally shows very low activity for the ORR, so the Pt particles are vital. Imagine that if we remove all of the Pt particles, can the remaining AC still play the similar role? The current work aims to make the inert AC active for the electrochemical reactions by creating unique defects in the AC.
First of all, different porous carbon materials with variable specific surface areas were synthesized by an easy and scalable chemical activation method. It is shown that all the activated samples demonstrate obviously improved ORR activity. Afterwards, the unique defects were introduced into the activated ACs via a facile nitrogen doping and removal approach to further enhance their catalytic performance, based on the defective mechanism that was proposed in our group, in which the nitrogen was incorporated into the ACs under an ammonia atmosphere at 500 °C and subsequently removed at 1050 °C under a nitrogen environment. The results showed that the doped nitrogen did not enhance the ORR performance of the synthesized samples directly, but the produced defects possibly served as the active sites for the ORR, which finally contributed to the catalytic performance improvement. Particularly, the resulting defective carbon (D-AC) derived from the highest surface area AC (3508 m2/g) also exhibits the best ORR performance in alkaline medium with low overpotential. For example, the ORR activity of the D-AC is comparable to the commercial Pt/C (20 wt% Pt) in terms of 4-electron pathway, half-wave potential and limiting current density, namely, 3.6, 0.771 V and 4.4 mA·cm-2 vs 3.9, 0.785 V and 5.0 mA·cm-2, respectively. Meanwhile, the D-AC also exhibits excellent HER activity, which is better than most of the reported metal-free HER catalysts, but with much lower production cost.<br>School of Natural Sciences<br>Science, Environment, Engineering and Technology<br>Full Text

Reductively triggered internal cyclisation reactions have been investigated as a prodrug system for the hypoxia selective release of aromatic nitrogen mustards. The observed pseudo-first-order rate coefficients of cyclisation of several model 2-aminoaryl-acetamides and propanamides have been measured. Cyclisation was observed to be strongly influenced by stereochemistry, whereas electron withdrawal from the amine-bearing ring resulted in a comparatively modest slowing of the rate of cyclisation. Protonation of the leaving group appeared to increase the rate of cyclisation, while changes in 4-substitution on the leaving amine had little effect on this rate. The cyclisation of 2-(2-aminophenyl) alkanamides was found to be subject to general catalysis by acidic buffer components, and rate determining formation of the tetrahedral intermediate has been proposed. Ring closure reactions of several 2-hydroxylaminophenylalkanamides have been studied by γ-radiolysis. HPLC methods have been developed for the separation of reduction and cyclisation products. Reduction stoichiometry implicates the hydroxylamine as the predominant reduction product of radiolysis of the 2-nitrophenylalkanamide precursors, which varied in the nature of substitution of the nitrobenzyl ring, 4-substitution of the leaving aniline, and overall geometry. Cyclisation via the hydroxylamino was observed to be significantly faster than that of its amino counterparts, and was similarly influenced by changes in geometry. The hydroxylamine undergoes a base catalysed, oxygen dependent reaction under aerobic conditions. This reaction did not appear to be influenced by the geometry of the compound. Substitution of the hydroxylamine-bearing ring with a carboxamide group (CONHR σp = 0.36) lowered the pH at which hydroxylamino-amide cyclisation was slowest, compared with its unsubstituted counterpart. The reaction was found to be aided by electron-withdrawal from the leaving amine. Rate determining breakdown of the tetrahedral intermediate has been proposed. Preliminary investigations have been made on 2-nitrophenyl alkyl esters and a 2,6-dinitrophenylamide prodrug system. Rapid, reductively triggered release of coupled phenols and amines has been observed from the nitro-esters and -amides, respectively. In contrast to amino-amide and hydroxylamino-amide cyclisation, gem-dimethyl substitution did not facilitate reductive release from the nitro-ester. The inability to measure the rates of reductive release in radiolysis solutions suggests that these reactions occur significantly faster than hydroxylamino-amide ring closure. Molecular mechanics calculations have been undertaken to investigate relationships between the geometry of 2-aminoarylalkanamides, and rates of cyclisation. The distance between, and angle of approach of the nucleophilic and electrophilic centres in the calculated minimum-energy conformer did not display a correlation with cyclisation rates.<br>Whole document restricted, but available by request, use the feedback form to request access.

Selenium is a required trace element which was originally discovered by the Swedish chemist Jons Jacob Berzelius in 1817. It was initially believed to be a toxin as it was identified as being the cause of hoof maladies and excessive hair loss in horses that feed upon plants with high selenium content. It wasn’t until 1957 that the potential contributions of selenium to physiology were first demonstrated. Selenium is now known to play a critical role in the maintenance of human health. Interestingly, unlike other trace metals/semi-metals, selenium is directly incorporated into proteins in the form of the amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) in a very complicated and energetically costly fashion. Though rare, being found in only 25 human proteins, Sec proteins are involved in numerous vital biological processes including maintenance of redox homeostasis and anti-oxidant defense. Even though Sec is essential, the reason that Sec replaces its structural analog cysteine (Cys) in only 25 proteins is not widely agreed upon. A previous model suggests that the replacement of Cys with Sec provides enzymes with a type of catalytic advantage. The presence of Cys-containing orthologs of mammalian Sec-enzymes in other eukaryotes argues against this model. A newer model to explain the use of Sec is that the gain of function imparted to an enzyme by replacing Cys with Sec is the ability of Sec to impart chemical reversibility.
Building on previous results from our lab demonstrating the ability of Sec to confer proteins with the ability to resist over oxidation we have elucidated the mechanism by which Sec containing thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) resists over oxidation. The ability of Sec-TrxR to resist oxidative inactivation is due to the greater electrophilicity of Sec relative to Cys. This allows for quicker resolution and prevents over oxidation. Based on these findings we also investigate the utility of the alkylating agent dimedone to probe the oxidation state of Sec. Interestingly, it was discovered that dimedone will react with seleneninic acid with the resulting adduct being labile. Additonally it was discovered that dimedone will also react with seleninic acid, resulting in the formation of a dimedone dimer. These results call into question the usefulness of dimedone in deteremining the oxidation state of Sec. Finally, we provide evidence that Sec-TrxR enzymes are able to catalyze single electron reductions. This is most likely due to the formation of a stable Sec radical intermediate. As a whole this project provides support for the theory that Sec was selected for due to its ability to convey chemical reversiablity to proteins.

Reduction reactions involving heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenations, complex metal hydrides, and to lesser degree hydrogen-transfer reactions, are regularly scaled-up in pilot plants. Unfortunately, thermal runaway incidents involving reduction reactions do occur, despite best efforts to prevent them through the application of a chemical reaction hazard assessment strategy. A review of the literature, plant incidents, thermochemical and calorimetric techniques, identified the requirements for a unique assessment strategy for reduction reactions. The preference was to safeguard the plant using preventive measures first which were supported by adequate protective measures. The basis of safety was defined by, the boiling point of the reaction mass, the process temperature and the adiabatic temperature rise for the desired and/or adverse reactions including other kinetic data, e. g., "time to maximum rate". A number of instrumental and thermochemical procedures were adopted for the hazard identification portion of the strategy. The DSC capillary and ampoule techniques were used for substrate thermal decomposition and air oxidation determinations including reaction solution thermal stability studies. An estimation technique (Yoshida) used DSC exothermic data to predict a substrate's susceptibility of being shock sensitive and/or explosion propagating. An evolved gas mass flow detector was coupled to a reaction calorimeter to determine the maximum off-gas rate. A modified stirred ARC for hydrogenations and a stirred-micro-calorimeter for the quantification of the adverse reaction were developed. Adiabatic determinations for quantification of the adverse reaction were variable. The heat losses were unacceptable for a controlled hydrogenation in a modified stirred ARC. Results for the stirred-micro-calorimeter were satisfactory. However, adverse reactions for hydride decompositions and "shot additions" yielded adequate calorimetric results. A series of controlled experiments by reaction calorimeter coupled with an insitu FTIR, characterised the thermochemistry, reaction kinetics, mass transfer coefficient and reaction mechanism for the desired and inhibited hydrogenations. A customised What-If? /Checklist process hazard analysis technique was developed for reduction reactions and two worked examples are presented. A hazard assessment strategy with appropriate hazard identification procedures was developed. Eight case studies (three hydrogenations, three hydride reductions and two hydrogen-transfer reactions) were used as examples to validate the reduction assessment strategy and hazard identification procedures.

Hydrometalation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds provides access to reactive metal enolates, which can then be trapped by a suitable electrophile. The coppercatalysed reductive aldol reaction involves hydrometalation of an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, followed by an inter- or intramolecular aldol reaction. While there have been numerous examples of copper-catalysed reductive aldol reactions reported in the literature, the corresponding reductive Michael reaction has been relatively understudied. Herein, the copper-catalysed reductive Michael cyclisation of substrates containing two α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moieties is described. A range of structurally and electronically diverse substrates were prepared by various different methods. Both α,β-unsaturated ketones and esters underwent cyclisation, in the presence of a copper catalyst, a bisphosphine ligand, and a stoichiometric reductant, to afford 5- and 6- membered carbocyclic and heterocyclic products, with good-to-excellent levels of diastereo- and enantiocontrol. Furthermore, the diastereochemical outcome of these reactions is dependent on the specific reaction conditions used.

The making and breaking of O-O bonds has implications ranging from artificial photosynthesis and water oxidation to the use of O₂ as a selective, green oxidant for transformations of small molecules. Oxidative generation of O₂ from coupling of two H₂O molecules remains challenging, and well defined systems that catalytically evolve O₂ are exceedingly rare. Recent theoretical studies have invoked metal oxyl radicals (L[subscript n]M=O*) containing a singly occupied M-O π-type orbital as precursors to O-O bond forming events in both biological and synthetic water oxidation catalysts. However, the lack of stable metal oxyl complexes makes it difficult to explore and understand this hypothesis. The activation of dioxygen (breaking of O-O bonds) to produce terminal metal oxos also remains a challenge. There is an inherent kinetic barrier to the spin-forbidden reactions of triplet dioxygen, and features that engender selective O₂ reduction are not easily transferable from system to system. The primary thrust of this thesis work has been to elaborate new methods to generate well-defined metal oxyl radicals for studies of their reactions in radical bond-forming reactions similar to the radical coupling hypothesis of water oxidation.
A library of >20 5- and 6-coordinate high-valent oxorhenium complexes containing redox-inert and redox-active ligands has been prepared. The complexes containing redox-active ligands have shown the ability for ligand-mediated radical coupling reactions. Mechanistic studies of bimetallic O₂ homolysis (the microscopic reverse of water oxidation) and nitroxyl radical deoxygenation at five-coordinate oxorhenium(V) reveal that, in both net 2e⁻ reactions, coupling to a redox-active ligand lowers the kinetic barrier to the reaction by facilitating formation and stabilization of 1e⁻ oxidized intermediates.
Coordinatively unsaturated high-valent oxorhenium complexes containing redox-active ligands direct bond-forming reactions towards the metal center. This is undesirable towards the goal of forming O-O bonds. To address this problem coordinatively saturated Re(V) and Re(VII) complexes were prepared. Oxidation of these species by chemical oxidants allowed for the isolation of "masked" oxyl species. These complexes showed reactivity towards Si and trityl radicals to produce new Si-O and C-O bonds, whereas their closed-shell congeners were inert. We have successfully developed a method for the preparation and isolation of "masked" oxyl radicals and shown their utility in ligand-mediated radical coupling reactions.
