Mise au point d’un procédé d’élaboration rapide de composites Carbone/Carbone haute densitéDekeyrel, Alixe 09 April 2010 (has links)
Les composites Carbone/Carbone haute densité sont généralement obtenus par voie gazeuse ou liquide (sous une pression de pyrolyse de 100 MPa), suivant des procédés contraignants. L’imprégnation de préformes fibreuses par des brais liquéfiés, sous une pression limitée à 10 MPa, permettrait de réduire certaines contraintes d’élaboration à condition de trouver des procédés pour améliorer les rendements de densification. La solution proposée dans le cadre de cette thèse est d’augmenter fortement la densité en une première étape, grâce à des techniques de densification moins classiques. Une étude bibliographique approfondie a permis de déterminer les caractéristiques importantes des brais, les différents paramètres influençant les densifications par voie liquide et des techniques de pré-densification. La cohérence entre les résultats de plusieurs techniques de caractérisation des brais, est mise en évidence lors du suivi expérimental de l’évolution de divers brais vers un carbone graphitique, sous pression modérée. Cette étude expérimentale concernant les précurseurs de matrice aboutit à la sélection d’un brai remplaçant au brai de référence A240 et au choix des paramètres du protocole de pyrolyse sous pression modérée. L’influence du réseau poreux de la préforme sur le comportement du brai pendant la densification est soulignée en comparant les rendements de densification dans une préforme 3D orthogonale et dans une préforme aiguilletée. L’intérêt des densifications mixtes (avec caléfaction, imprégnation de poudres ou de brai mésophasique) est jugé par rapport à la densité et à la microstructure des composites obtenus. Les procédés originaux de densification hybride réalisés sur les préformes aiguilletées se révèlent efficaces, puisqu’une densité apparente supérieure à 1,80 et une porosité inférieure à 15% est atteinte après quatre cycles de densification par du brai isotrope. Des mesures thermiques sur les composites C/C obtenus illustrent la relation entre microstructure et conductivité thermique. Il semble ainsi possible de moduler les propriétés macroscopiques des composites C/C grâce à l’utilisation de procédés permettant d’élaborer des composites C/C à matrices carbonées mixtes. / High density Carbon/Carbon composites are usually prepared by chemical vapor impregnation or by liquid pitch impregnation under high pressure (100 MPa). As these processes are complex and costly, an alternative moderate pressure (P < 10 MPa) impregnation process may be attractive, provided the densification yield is strongly improved. This doctoral work proposes an original process, including a pre-densification step, which leads to a significant increase of the C/C composite final density. Essential characteristics of pitches, various parameters influencing liquid pitch densification and processes for the pre-densification step are determined from bibliographical study. Consistent changes of the different physico-chemical characteristics are observed throughout the evolution of pitches to graphitic carbon, under moderate pressure. This experimental study on matrix precursors leads to the selection of a particular pitch as substitute of A240 pitch and to the determination of a specific pyrolysis procedure under moderate pressure. Influence of porous network in preforms on the pitch behaviour during densification is outlined by the comparison of densification yields in both an orthogonal 3D preform and a needled preform. Hybrid densification processes (with film-boiling process, powder impregnation, mesophasic pitch impregnation) are evaluated through the final density and the microstructure of elaborated composites. High density C/C composites, with an apparent density higher than 1.80 g.cm-3 and an open porosity lower than 15%, have been prepared from a pre-densified needled preform, after four densification cycles with liquid isotropic pitch, under moderate pressure. Thermal properties measurements on these C/C composites confirm the strong relationship between microstructure and thermal conductivity. It seems possible to tailor the macroscopic properties of C/C composites, thanks to hybrid carbonaceous matrices.

Physico-chimie de l’interface fibres/matrice : applications aux composites Carbone/Carbone / Physico-chemical interface of fibers/matrix : carbone/Carbone Composites applicationsFradet, Guillaume 11 December 2013 (has links)
Ces travaux de thèse portent sur la physico-chimie de l'interface fibre/matrice appliquée aux composites Carbone/Carbone. La surface des fibres de carbone est modifiée par divers traitements de surface (voie gazeuse et voie humide). L'impact de ces différents procédés sur l'état de surface des fibres a été évalué par chromatographie gazeuse en phase inverse à dilution infinie, MEB, AFM, MET, RAMAN… Suite à ces caractérisations, des traitements de surface ont été retenus pour la réalisation de composite C/C. Les propriétés notamment mécaniques des matériaux composites à interfaces modulées (force de la liaison fibre/matrice) ont pu être évaluées. Finalement, il a pu être établi une relation entre modifications de surface des fibres de carbone et comportement macroscopique des composites C/C. / This work focuses on the physical chemistry of the fiber/matrix interface applied to composites carbon/carbon. The surface of carbon fibers was modified by various surface treatments. The carbon fibers surface variation was evaluated by inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution, SEM, AFM, TEM, Raman... After these characterizations, surface treatments were selected for the realization of C/C composites. The mechanical properties of composites at modulated interfaces (fibers/matrix bonding) were evaluated. Finally, a correlation between surface modification of carbon fibers and macroscopic behavior of composite C/C was established.

Metalls de transició en la formació d'enllaços carboni-carboni: cicloaddicions [2+2+2] catalitzades per Rh(I) i acoblaments creuats catalitzats per Pd(0) i Ni(0)Brun Massó, Sandra 27 April 2012 (has links)
Carbon-carbon bond formation reactions catalyzed by transition metals represent one of the most versatile and efficient strategies in organic synthesis. The catalytic transformations contribute to the development of methodologies that are more environmentally benign and with high atomic economy. Despite the progress in this field in recent years, the development of new and more efficient strategies of synthesis continues to be one of the main challenges of organic chemistry. In the present PhD thesis the Rh(I)-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction of different macrocyclic and acyclic substrates containing double and/or triple bond in their structure are studied. On the other hand, Matsuda-Heck reactions and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings using diazonium salts as electrophiles under Pd(II) catalysis with mild reaction conditions and a totally aqueous medium have been studied. Palladium-catalyzed carbon-carbon bonds a good alternative both in terms of cost and activity is the use of nickel catalysts. Finally, new Ni(0) complexes with macrocyclic and open-chain ligands containing double and triple bonds have been synthesized and completely characterized. Their activity in Suzuki cross-coupling reactions is then studied. / Les reaccions de formació d’enllaços carboni-carboni catalitzades per metalls de transició representen una de les estratègies més versàtils i eficients en síntesi orgànica. Les transformacions catalítiques contribueixen al desenvolupament de metodologies més benignes amb el mediambient i proporcionen una elevada economia atòmica. Encara que siguin molts els avenços fets en aquest camp en els últims anys, el desenvolupament de noves i més eficients estratègies de síntesi segueixen essent un dels reptes principals de la química orgànica. En la present tesi s'ha estudiat la reacció de cicloaddició [2+2+2] catalitzada per Rh(I) de diferents substrats macrocíclics i acíclics contenint dobles i/o triples enllaços. Per altra banda, s’han portat a terme reaccions de Matsuda-Heck i acoblaments creuats de Suzuki-Miyaura utilitzant sals de diazoni com a electròfils sota catàlisi per Pd(II) emprant condicions suaus de reacció i en medi totalment aquós. Una bona alternativa al pal•ladi en termes econòmics i d’activitat és l’ús de catalitzadors de níquel. Finalment s’han sintetitzat i caracteritzat estructuralment nous complexos de Ni(0) amb lligands macrocíclics i de cadena oberta contenint diferents insaturacions i s'ha estudiat la seva activitat catalítica en reaccions de Suzuki.

Development of New Carbon-Carbon Bond-Forming Strategies: Formation and Reactivity of sp³-gem-Organodimetallic Palladium(II)/MRn Alkane Intermediates (MRn=Dialkylalumino, Trialkylstannyl)Trepanier, Vincent Hector Emile 07 November 2006 (has links)
Investigation of the catalytic formation, reactivity and synthetic scope of sp³-gem-organodimetallic palladio(II)/main group metal (main group metal = tributylstannyl, dialkylalumino) alkane species has been carried out. Insight was expanded regarding the inter- and intramolecular reactivity of vinylmetallic reagents in presence of transition metal catalysts. New Pd-catalysed methodologies for carbon-carbon bond formation were developed, such as cyclopropanation of strained olefins, as well as tandem vinylalane arylation/1,2-methyl transfer and 1,2-diarylation.
On the one hand, geminal π-allylpalladio(II)/tributylstannylalkane intermediates are produced by oxidative addition of Pd(0) catalysts to α-tributylstannylpropenyl acetate derivatives. They adopt ambiphilic behaviour depending on the transition metal pre-catalyst, presence or absence of phosphine ligands, and reaction temperature. In presence of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) with additional bidentate ligand, the carbenoid reactivity of these gem-organobismetallic species is exposed by reaction with dimethyl malonate. Deuterium-labeling studies demonstrated sequential functionalisation of the C-Sn and C-Pd bonds. Conversely, phosphine-free catalyst bis(dibenzylideneacetone)palladium(0) uncovers metal-carbene reactivity, and dimerisation and strained alkene cyclopropanation reactions are observed. The nature of the palladium catalyst controls the reactivity of the carbenoid species. Finally, bis(cyclooctadienerhodium(I) chloride) catalytically activates the alkenylstannane moiety, leaving the allylic acetate leaving group available for further transformations.
On the other hand, gem-disubstituted trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy- and iodopalladio(II)/ dialkylaluminoneopentane species are generated by intramolecular migratory insertion of 2,2-disubstituted-1-butenyldialkylalanes with σ-arylpalladium(II) triflate and iodide intermediates. Using excess Lewis-basic 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, electron-rich tris(para-methoxyphenyl)phosphine ligand and acetonitrile as solvent, tandem arylation/1,2-alkyl migration from aluminum to carbon affords 7-substituted-1-ethyl-1-methylindanes containing an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centre in good yields. This reaction is tolerant of 6-aryl methyl ethers, thioethers and trimethylsilanes. Deuterium labeling established that protiodealumination of the key neopentyl(methyl)aluminum triflate intermediate is caused by the acetonitrile solvent. The organodimetallic species in that study were shown to be configurationally stable, hence the stereospecificity of the process that proceeds via carbopalladation, transmetalation and reductive elimination of an alkylpalladium(II) intermediate.
When applied to 1-naphthyl triflate-tethered vinylalanes, the same reaction conditions mediate stereospecific 1,2-diarylation, leading to 2,3,3a,4-tetrahydro-1H-cyclopenta[def]phenanthrenes in excellent yields. The influence of DABCO, tether length and solvent polarity was studied. Selective tandem arylation/1,2-methyl migration could also be achieved in non-polar solvent in absence of Lewis base. While steric properties took precedence over electronic considerations when inducing product selection, preagostic C-H···Pd interactions were postulated to facilitate 1,3-metal migration in the production of 1H-cyclopenta[def]phenanthrene derivatives.

Studies towards Developing Diastereoselective SN1 Reactions of α-Keto CarbocationsDubland, Joshua 06 April 2010 (has links)
Although α-keto carbocations have been demonstrated to be viable intermediates in solvolysis reactions, their applications in synthesis are scarce. These species can be considered to be equivalent to “reversed polarity” enolates and, as such, could be useful for the asymmetric formation of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. In principle, facial selectivity in additions to α-keto carbocations may be induced using easily removed ester, amide, or imide chiral auxiliaries. Efforts to achieve such diastereoselective SN1 reactions of α-keto carbocations are described herein.

Étude du comportement mécanique et tribologique des disques de frein en Carbone/Carbone pour des applications aéronautiques / A mechanical and tribological behavior study of Carbon/Carbon brake disks for aeronautical applicationsPoitrimolt, Marie 26 September 2017 (has links)
Cette étude s'intéresse aux performances des matériaux composites Carbone/Carbone 2,5D lors d'un freinage aéronautique de basse énergie. Durant la vie avion, l'état de surface des disques de frein évolue et les performances de freinage s'en trouvent modifiées. Les études expérimentales et les modélisations réalisées ont pour buts la maîtrise et la prédiction de l'évolution des propriétés de la surface, cela en fonction à la fois des conditions tribologiques mais également de la distance dans deux environnements d'étude: à sec et lubrifié. Un premier volet de ce travail consiste à caractériser finement le comportement mécanique en compression du composite Carbone/Carbone 2,5D, afin de comprendre les répercussions du frottement en sous-couche. Après la détermination des caractéristiques élastiques du matériau, le comportement élasto-endommageable en compression est relevé. Ces caractéristiques sont implémentées dans une simulation 1D et permettent de reproduire les courbes d'essais de compression cyclique à contrainte croissante. Parallèlement, une étude du comportement tribologique du C/C 2,5D à sec via des essais courts a permis de connaître les caractéristiques des coefficients de frottement de différents états de surface. Les coefficients de frottement moyens sont mis en relation avec le paramètre de rugosité Sk. Les essais tribologiques longue distance mis en oeuvre ont modifié l'état de surface des échantillons tant sur le plan topographique que sur le plan morphologique. Des fissures en sous-couche apparaissent, conséquence des efforts tribologiques subis. Ces observations ont menés à la détermination d'un mécanisme d'évolution d'état de surface des disques en environnement sec. Enfin, deux types d'essais en environnement lubrifié ont été proposés, afin de séparer le comportement ponctuel d'un état de surface du comportement tribologique avec la distance. Premièrement, une procédure d'essais tribologiques courts a été mise en place et s'affiche comme un moyen de caractérisation d'état de surface in-situ à part entière, avec des caractéristiques des courbes de Stribeck directement liées aux états morphologiques et topographiques. Ensuite, un plan d'expérience réunit les essais longs destinés à modifier l'état de surface d'éprouvettes pour plusieurs jeux de paramètres tribologiques. Les courbes de Stribeck de ces nouveaux états de surface sont analysées. Ainsi, les états de surface expérimentaux sont comparés à ceux des disques de frein industriels. / This study focuses on the performance of 2.5D Carbon/Carbon composite materials for low energy aeronautical braking. During aircraft life, the surface condition of the brake discs evolves and the braking performances change. The experimental studies and the modelizations carried out aim in controlling and predicting the evolution of surface properties, both in terms of the tribological conditions but also of the distance in two study environments: dry and lubricated. For this purpose, a characterization of the mechanical behavior in compression of the 2.5D Carbon/Carbon composite is performed in order to understand the repercussions of friction underlayer. The elastic characteristics of the material and the elasto-damaging behavior in compression are identified. These characteristics are used in a 1D simulation, that allows reproducing the cyclic compression test curves with increasing stress. At the same time, a study of the tribological behavior of the dry 2.5D C/C composite via short tests made it possible to know the friction coefficient of different surface conditions. The average friction coefficients are related to the roughness. The long-range tribological tests used have modified the topographic and morphological surface conditions of the samples. Cracks appear at the underlayer, as a result of the tribological efforts. These observations led to the determination of a mechanism for the evolution of surface condition of discs in a dry environment. Finally, two types of lubricated environment tests have been proposed in order to separate the instantaneous behavior of a surface state from the tribological behavior with the distance. First, a short tribological test procedure is set up and is displayed as a means of in-situ surface condition characterization in its own right, with characteristics of the Stribeck curves directly related to the morphological and topographical states. Next, an experimental plan combines long tests to modify the surface condition of test pieces for several sets of tribological parameters. The Stribeck curves of these new surface states are analyzed. Experimental surface conditions are compared with those of industrial brake disks.

Estudo da Aplicação de Brometo de Índio(I) em Reações para Formação de Ligações Carbono-Carbono / Studies on the Application of Indium(I) Bromide in Carbon-CarbonChagas, Rafael Pavão das 01 March 2011 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / This PhD thesis describes our results on the application of indium(I) bromide in carbon-carbon bond forming reactions. Indium enolates, generated in situ from the reaction between indium(I) bromide and α,α-dichloroketones, react with carbonyl compounds and electron-deficient alkenes. Reactions of indium enolate with α,α-dichloroketones, in presence of extra InBr, leads to the formation of 1,4-diketones. The coupling with aldehydes leads alternatively, according as the stoichiometry, to the diastereoselective synthesis of (syn+anti)-2-chloro-3-hydroxy-propan-1-ones (which can be converted to the respective trans-epoxyketones), (E)-α,β-unsaturated ketones and cyclopropanes, upon a sequenced reaction mechanism. We also have developed a methodology for the preparation of cyclopropanes through the reaction of the indium enolate and other organoindium(III) compounds, derived from the reactions between InBr and α,α-dihalo carbonyl compounds and halo-acetonitriles, with electron-deficient alkenes. / Este trabalho descreve os resultados dos estudos realizados sobre aplicações de brometo de índio(I) em reações para formação de ligações carbono-carbono. A reação entre brometo de índio(I) e α,α-diclorocetonas produz, in situ, enolatos de índio que reagem com compostos carbonílicos e alcenos deficientes em elétrons. As reações do enolato de índio com outras moléculas de α,α-diclorocetonas, na presença de InBr em excesso, leva à formação de 1,4-dicetonas. O acoplamento com aldeídos leva alternativamente, conforme a estequiometria, à formação diastereosseletiva de (syn+anti)-α-cloro-β-hidróxi-cetonas (que podem ser convertidas às respectivas trans-epóxi-cetonas), cetonas (E)-α,β-insaturadas e ciclopropanos, segundo um mecanismo de reações sequenciais. Ainda foi desenvolvida uma metodologia para preparação de ciclopropanos através da reação do enolato de índio e de outros compostos organoíndio(III), derivados da reação entre InBr e vários compostos carbonílicos α,α-di-halogenados e halogeno-acetonitrilas, com alcenos deficientes em elétrons.

Palladium Catalyzed Refunctionalizations of Olefins : Novel Strategies for Construction of C-C, C-Hetero Bonds and Homogeneous HydrogenationOjha, Devi Prasan January 2015 (has links) (PDF)
Chapter 1: Metal carbenoids in organic synthesis
The chapter describes the phenomena of metal carbenoid insertion reactions in two parts: Part A, and Part B. The study of N-tosylhydrazones as diazo precursor was commenced by Jose Barluenga in 2007,1 which demonstrated an in-situ generation of diazo species and trapping of that with low valent palladium catalyst (Scheme 1). Later, this palladium-carbenoid assumption was supported by few reports. Some of these discoveries were by D. F. Taber in 1986 followed by van Vranken in 1999 & 2001.2 These studies of palladium carbenes were supplemented by several groups in subsequent years. The consequent developments with N-tosylhydrazones as diazo source were very fruitful and produced exceptional chemical transformations in recent years. Though the precursor is also vastly customary for other metals such as Cu, Ni, Rh and Co, the primary focus has been given to Pd catalysis due to its wide utility and applicability.

3) Palladium catalysed coupling of tosylhydrazones with aryl and heteroaryl halides in the absence of external ligands: synthesis of substituted olefins, Ojha, D. P.; Prabhu, K. R. J. Org. Chem., 2013, 78, 12136.
Modes of reactivity of a metal-carbene
Scheme 1 Cascade carbene migratory insertion process
Part A: Ligand-free coupling of tosylhydrazones with aryl & heteroaryl halides
In this part, Palladium catalysed cross-coupling reaction of hydrazones with aryl halides in absence of an external ligand is reported. The versatility of this coupling reaction has been demonstrated by showcasing the selectivity of coupling reaction in presence of hydroxyl and amine functional groups. This method allows synthesizing a variety of heterocyclic compounds, which are otherwise difficult to access from traditional methods. Application of the present methodology is validated in tandem reaction of ketones to the corresponding substituted olefins in a single pot experiment. Few examples are illustrated below in Scheme 2.3
Scheme 2: Scope of aryl halide coupling with tosylhydrazones
Part B: Pd-catalysed Synthesis of Highly Branched Dienes
The regioselective formation of highly branched dienes is a challenging task. Design and exploration of alternative working models to achieve such a regioselectivity to accomplish highly branched dienes is considered to be a historical advancement of Heck reaction to construct branched dienes. On the basis of the utility of carbene transfer reactions, in the reaction of hydrazones with Pd(II) under oxidative conditions, we envisioned obtaining a Pd-bis-carbene complex with α-hydrogens, which can lead to branched dienes. Herein, we report a novel Pd catalyzed selective coupling reaction of hydrazones in presence of tert-BuOLi and benzoquinone oxidant to form corresponding branched dienes (Scheme 3).4 The utility of the Pd catalyst for cross-coupling reactions for synthesizing branched conjugated dienes are rare. The reaction is very versatile and compatible with a variety of functional groups and is useful in synthesizing heterocyclic molecules. We anticipate that this Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction will open new avenues for synthesizing useful compounds.

Chapter 2: Tosylhydrazones: Role in modern day organic synthesis
In recent days, hydrazone based reactions are focused on the donor-acceptor ability of the hydrazones or the in-situ generated diazo species (Scheme 4). This commenced with the Myers’s report in 2004,5 which simplifies the Barton vinyl halide preparation with a remarkable revision on synthesis of alkyl-silyl-hydrazones and its applications. Improved methods of using tosylhydrazones were demonstrated by Aggarwal in successive years. Cycloadditions were implemented by Douglass F. Taber. 6
This study was enriched in a quite fascinating way by several groups such as Jose Barluenga, with many reductive coupling reactions and 1, 3-dipolar reactions. Thomson, in a very interesting report shows the traceless petasis reaction with hydrazones and also worked in many other prospects such as three component reactions and the acid catalysed [3+3] sigmatropic reactions of hydrazones. 7 Wang has also impressed with very attractive transformations in the past decade. 8

9) Regioselective Synthesis of vinyl halides, vinyl sulfones, and alkynes: A tandem intermolecular nucleophilic and electrophilic vinylation of tosylhydrazones, Ojha, D. P.; Prabhu, K. R. Org. Lett. 2015, 17, 18.
Scheme 4: Trapping diazo species in intermolecular fashion
Part A: Synthesis of vinyl halides
Trapping diazo species in an intermolecular fashion by attack of two independent ions (a cation followed by an anion) in tandem at the carbene center is unprecedented. As part of our efforts on the utility of tosylhydrazones, herein we report a novel approach of using ambiphilic diazo species to perform a tandem attack of a nucleophile followed by an electrophile in an intermolecular fashion for synthesizing various types of vinyl halides. A few representative examples are shown in Scheme 5.9
Scheme5: Synthesis if vinyl halides
Part B: Synthesis of vinyl sulfones
Vinyl sulfones are potential synthetic targets due to their presence in biologically and pharmaceutically important molecules ranging from small natural metabolites to proteins, and have found widespread applications in biological research as covalent protease inhibitors. Vinyl sulfones represent one of the important sulfur containing functional groups in organic chemistry, which are
generally synthesized through elimination reactions, oxidation of vinyl sulfides or witting reactions using multistep sequence. Following this technique, we were able to synthesize a variety of vinyl sulfones with rich mechanistic features in a single step. A few such examples are documented in Scheme 6.9
Scheme 6: synthesis of vinyl sulfones
Part C: Synthesis of alkynes
The functional group conversion to achieve alkyne frameworks are generally a difficult transformation. There are very few limited and tedious processes are available in literature, mainly containing multi-step procedures. Additionally these reactions are require harsh conditions. Considering all these factors, there is a need for developing methods to synthesize alkynes from common functional groups under mild reactions conditions. In a similar way, to introduce different halogens at the same carbon, we expected the eliminations of the leaving groups in tandem formed alkynes. After extensive screening studies, it was pleasing to find that the reaction of tosylhydrazones with NCS−BTEAC, NBS−TBAB, or NIS−TBAI combination in presence of K2CO3 in dioxane as solvent at 110 °C can furnish corresponding acetylene derivatives in good yields. Few examples are shown in Scheme 7.9
Scheme 7: Trapping diazo species in intermolecular fashion
Chapter 3: Pd catalysed hydroboration
This chapter shows a hydroboration study of terminal alkynes in a highly regioselective manner (Scheme 8). Organoboron derivatives have become essential intermediates in organic and medicinal chemistry. Pioneering contributions are made by Brown and Akira Suzuki, who both instigated the development of new synthetic tools for the introduction of boron atoms onto organic molecules. 10

The metal catalyzed borylations of alkynes proceeds in a two-step process. Initially M-Bpin species undergo an addition onto the alkynes to generate organometallic species followed by quenching of the organometallic species with electrophiles. The addition M-Bpin species is regioselective governed by the steric and electronics factors of both metal complex as well as alkyne substituents. In this direction, a palladium catalysed α-selective borylation was achieved for terminal alkynes. A broad range of substrates were successfully borylated under optimized reaction conditions with very high selectivity. Interestingly, the selectivity was reversed to terminal site by using a NHC ligand. A few examples are shown in Scheme 9.11

Chapter 4: Pd/borane unit: Behavior towards isomerization vs reduction of alkenes
This study presents a unique behaviour of palladium-boronate unit responsible for olefin chain walking and olefin reduction reactions (Scheme 10). The catalytic system stands efficient against both functionalized and unfunctionalized olefin isomerization as well as reductions. This study has been presented in two parts.
Scheme 10: isomerization vs reduction
Part A: Pd/ boronates or borane unit as efficient catalytic systems for olefin chain walk
This study presents the behaviour of palladium-boronate unit responsible for olefin chain walking. The catalytic system is efficient for both functionalized and unfunctionalized olefin isomerizations (Scheme 11). Cycloisomerization of transient conjugated alkenes to synthesize heterocycles are prominent applications of this technique. The system describes a concept of olefin activation by coordination with Pd-borane complex, this complex assists in a facile [1,3]-hydride shift. This technique allows us to facilitate an isomerization in functionalized as well as unfunctionalized olefinic systems. Considering the substrates scope, the catalytic cycle tolerates various sensitive functional groups and shows good selectivity. In the following Scheme 11 few examples are depicted.12

Part B: Palladium catalysed boronate promoted alkene reduction in water
In this work, water has been employed as a source of hydrogen. The reduction of alkenes was achieved using Pd catalyst in presence of bis(pinacolato)diboron and H2O. In this aspect, the utility of
water as hydrogen equivalent is the pertinent as well as beneficial with many advantages. Few representative examples are shown in Scheme 12.13
