Iridium Catalysed Borylation as a Platform for Exploring the Use of Non-Covalent Interactions to Control Regio- and Enantioselectivity
(2020-03-28)Transition metal catalysed C-H activation is a highly desirable strategy for the functionalization of organic molecules. It allows for a rapid generation of structurally complex products from simple precursors in an atom- ... -
High-resolution mapping of abasic sites and pyrimidine modifications in DNA
(2020-05-16)The maintenance of genomic stability is critical for the growth and survival of cells. Cellular DNA is constantly subject to both endogenous and exogenous sources of damage, leading to the formation of damage products. ... -
Self-Assembly of Functional Helical Metallopolymers
(2020-03-21)Self-assembled metal-organic materials have been championed as candidates for the next generation of functional materials. This has been attributed to their ‘bottom-up’ design and preparation, error-checking mechanisms, ... -
A novel photocatalytic strategy for complex aliphatic amine synthesis and the total synthesis of alkaloids (−) FR901483 and (+)-TAN1251C
(2020-07-18)Owing to their unique properties, the synthesis and functionalization of aliphatic amines plays a central role in the field of visible light photoredox chemistry. In this thesis, the development of a novel, visible light ...
