McMills A series of five- to nine-membered nitrogen-containing heterocycles were prepared via a general and efficient sequence featuring rhodium-catalyzed insertions of !- diazocarbonyls into the N-H or C-H bonds of a series of tert-butoxy-(Boc)-protected amines, followed by ring-closing metathesis catalyzed by ruthenium benzylidene complexes. The newly developed methodology allows easy and convenient access to highly functionalized azacycloalkenes in good yields and excellent selectivities. Vinyl diazoacetoacetate and styryl diazoacetate were found to undergo exceptionally chemoselective carbenoid insertions into the N-H bonds of a series of Boc- protected amines in good yields; however, no stereoselectivity was observed for this process. In contrast, diastereo- and enantioselective C-H insertions and cyclopropanations were observed for the decomposition of styryl diazoacetate catalyzed by the same rhodium catalyst. Based on these findings, reactivity trends of rhodium carbenoids derived from styryl diazoacetate were postulated. Approved: _____________________________________________________________ Mark C.

Under Professor McMills’ supervision, I have grown both as a scientist and as a person. During my time in Professor McMills’ group I have acquired invaluable knowledge, and for this priceless experience I will be eternally grateful. I feel that the skills I have learned during my time with Professor McMills have prepared me for the future and the world outside of Athens. I would also like to thank my former undergraduate supervisor, Professor Tomá! Hudlick" for introducing me to the field of organic chemistry and encouraging me to pursue the highest academic degree attainable. I am very thankful to all the present and past group members in Professor McMills’ lab. I would like to gratefully acknowledge Dr. Jason Stengel, who has helped me tremendously when I first joined the group; as well as the future graduates, John Bougher and Alicia Frantz. I would like to thank all the undergraduate research associates, including Ross Humes, Katie Castor, Austin Doyle and John Feltenberger. It has been fun to have the German exchange students and I would really like to thank Henrik Teller and Daniel Becker, with whom I was fortunate to work with. I am grateful to my friends and colleagues, Shannon Cook and Dr. Crina Orac, for sharing our graduate experience together. I would never be able to graduate without my committee members, and I am very grateful they have guided me through my journey.

His love and support give meaning to my undertakings and his professional expertise does not hurt either. Joe has always been insistent on me getting my work done during our trips to Panera and although at the time I thought it was ruining our weekends, I know now that my dissertation would not have been written otherwise. I would like to acknowledge Ohio University and Biomolecular Innovation and Technology (BMIT) Group for financial support. 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page

    Insertion Reactions • Oxidative addition and substitution allow us to assemble 1e and 2e ligands on the metal, respectively. • With insertion, and its reverse reaction, elimination, we can now combine and transform these ligands within the coordination sphere, and ultimately expel these transformed ligands to form free organic compounds. • There are two main types of insertion 1) 1,1 insertion in which the metal and the X ligand end up bound to the same (,)(1,1) atom 2) 1,2 insertion in which the metal and the X ligand end up bound to adjacent (1,2) atoms of an L‐type ligand. 1 • The type of insertion observed in any given case depends on the nature of the 2e inserting ligand. • For example: CO gives only 1,1 insertion ethylene gives only 1,2 insertion, in which the M and the X end up on adjacent atoms of what was the 2e X‐type ligand. In general, η1 ligands tend to give 1,1 insertion and η2 ligands give 1,2 insertion • SO2 is the only common ligan d tha t can give bthboth types of itiinsertion; as a ligan d, SO2 can be η1 (S) or η2 (S, O). • In principle, insertion reactions are reversible, but just as we saw for oxidative addition and reductive elimination previously, for many ligands only one of the two possible directions is observed in practice, probably because this direction is strongly favored thermodynamically. 2 •A2e vacant site is generated by 1,1 and 1,2 insertion reactions. • Thissite can be occupidied byanextlternal 2e ligan d and the itiinsertion prodtduct tdtrapped.

    ACADEMIA ROMÂNĂ Rev. Roum. Chim., Revue Roumaine de Chimie 2011, 56(4), 299-316 http://web.icf.ro/rrch/ Dedicated to Professor Alexandru T. Balaban on the occasion of his 80th anniversary REVIEW NEW INSIGHTS INTO THE MECHANISM OF ALKENE METATHESIS Carmen I. MITAN,* Valerian DRAGUTAN and Ileana DRAGUTAN Institute of Organic Chemistry, Roumanian Academy, Spl. Independentei, 202 B, sect. 6, Bucharest, Roumania Received September 8, 2010 The diversity of alkene metathesis reactions, presently applied to their full potential in synthesis of complex scaffolds and assemblies or as key steps in the total synthesis of natural products, demands a deep understanding of the intricate metathesis mechanism since not all of the catalysts are efficient for all of the substrates, nor do they trigger the identical mechanistic pathways, though they share the same main intermediates (the generally accepted metallacarbene and metallacyclobutane). Beyond that, metathesis processes are occasionally complicated by the occurrence of side reactions resulting in a number of by-products. Unveiling the influence of reaction conditions, and in particular of the catalytic system and the active species generated thereof during metathesis of a chosen substrate is paramount for obtaining high yields in the targeted product, at low costs. This paper focuses on relevant kinetic and mechanistic aspects reported to date for alkene metathesis induced by Ru-alkylidene complexes, concentrating on the interplay ligand dissociation – initiation step – overall catalytic activity, as determined by the catalyst structure.

In the past years a particular subclass of the RCM, the ring closing enyne metathesis (RCEYM), has attracted attention due to its synthetic potential in the generation of ring structures with 1,3-diene moieties, which can subsequently be further functionalised. In this tutorial review mechanistic considerations will be described and the synthetic power of this useful and attractive carbon–carbon bond forming reaction will be illustrated by recent examples of RCEYM applications in the preparation of heterocyclic compounds. 1.

Even though there are many reports on the carbene transfer process to develop a new approach for the synthesis of medicine and other bioactive compounds, the regio-, stereo- and chemoselective approaches are still limited and remained as a main subject in the filed of synthetic organic chemistry. For these background, I developed an efficient catalytic intramolecular carbene transfer reactions by using originally developed ruthenium catalyst into σ and π bonds and successfully applied for the synthesis of γ-lactam ring fused aromatics (oxindoles), γ-lactone ring fused cyclopropanes, and γ-lactam ring fused seven member rings via Buchner reaction. Although ruthenium complex is a newcomer in the field of catalytic carbene transfer reaction, it has emerged as a useful transition metal for the carbenoid chemistry of diazo compounds, besides copper and rhodium. And recently, we have developed a Ru(II)-Pheox complex, which is efficient for carbene transfer reactions, in particular, asymmetric cyclopropanation, N-H insertion, C-H insertion and Si-H insertion reactions. Therefore, driven by my interests in the catalytic asymmetric carbene transfer reaction and the efficiency displayed by the Ru(II)-Pheox catalyst, I started to explore the asymmetric cyclopropanation, C-H insertion, Buchner reactions of various diazo compounds, which are potentially building blocks and expectant to be applied in pharmaceutical and medicinal fields .
