Titre : N,O-Chelated Early Transition Metals in Catalysis. New Approaches for the Synthesis of Organic Small Molecules and Functional Materials.
La conférence sera prononcée par Laurel Schafer, professeure au Département de chimie de l'University of British Columbia et titulaire de la Chaire de recherche du Canada en développement des catalyseurs. Elle sera donnée en anglais.
Résumé : Amidate, ureate and pyridonate ligands are N,O-chelates ideally suited for complexing hard metal centers, such as Ti, Zr and Ta. Importantly, these hemi-labile ligands have been shown to promote unique reactivity in hydroamination, hydroaminoalkylation and ring-opening polymerization. Recent advances in the development of more reactive and broadly applicable catalytic methods for selective amine and N-heterocycle synthesis will be presented. Extension of the application of this family of complexes toward the synthesis of biodegradable co-polymers as new materials with potential applications in drug delivery will also be discussed.
