Iridium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Furan Deriv...
Pauli, Larissa The main focus of the research presented in this dissertation was to broaden the substrate scope of the iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of heterocyclic compounds. In view of the fact that a widely applicable hydrogenation system for the reduction of structurally diverse furans and benzofurans is to date not available, a thorough investigation of furan, benzofuran and thiophene 1, 1-dioxide derivatives was carried out. Mono- and disu...
