Part II: N-heterocyclic carbene based ruthenium catalysts for direct amide synthesis from alcohols and amines. Zhang, Yao Hong Soon Hyeok School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences DRNTU::Science::Chemistry::Physical chemistry::Catalysis 145 p. This thesis is divided into two parts. In part one, several nitrone-based bidentate and tridentate ligands have been developed, and the subsequent metalations of these ligands allowed us to synthesize a series of neutral and/or cationic Pd (II), Ni (II) and Ru (II) OXO-type (X = C or N) pincer complexes and cationic Ir (III) complexes. The structural characterizations and catalytic abilities of these complexes in C-C couplings, transfer hydrogenation reaction, and Oppenauer-type oxidation of alcohol were studied thoroughly. In part two, iV-heterocyclic carbene based ruthenium complexes were developed as highly active catalysts for direct amide synthesis from alcohols and amines. The well-defined catalysts provided mechanistic insight suggesting a ruthenium hydride species as an active catalytic intermediate. ​Doctor of Philosophy (SPMS) 2014-04-07T10:21:52Z 2014-04-07T10:21:52Z 2011 2011 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10356/57395 Nanyang Technological University application/pdf
