USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation mainly contains three parts: 1) the study of ligand assisted gold oxidative addition toward aryl iodide to achieve the alkene difunctionalization. 2) The selective arylation reaction via electrochemical anode oxidation promoted gold redox chemistry. 3) The π acid reactivity of gold redox chemistry under electrochemistry conditions.
In the first part, the gold-catalyzed intermolecular oxyarylation of alkene is reported. This work employed the oxidative addition of aryl iodide to Me-DalphosAu+ for the formation of Au(III)-Ar intermediate. The better binding ability of alkene over O nucleophiles ensured the success of intermolecular oxyarylation, giving desired products with broad substrate scope and …
