Development of new reactions and reagents in carbene-catalyzed addition of carbon and nitrogen nucleophiles to unsaturated acyl azolium intermediates

This thesis focuses on development of efficient protocols for access to advanced complex molecules enabled by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed LUMO activation of enal or its ester derivatives, and discovery of polyhalide as simple organic oxidant for oxidative carbene catalysis. It contains fi...
