Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Konstantin Karaghiosoff Mündliche Prüfung am: 18. Oktober 2016 This work was carried out from March 2014 to July 2016 under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Paul Knochel at the Department of Chemistry at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich. First of all, I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Paul Knochel for giving me the great opportunity to carry out my PhD thesis in his group, for his support, the exciting research projects, the advice in the course of my scientific research and his interest in this work. I also would like to express my gratitude to Prof. Dr. Konstantin Karaghiosoff for being the person he is and for agreeing to be second reviewer of my thesis. Moreover, I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Franz Bracher, Dr. Henry Dube, Prof. Dr. Manfred Heuschmann and Dr. Thomas Magauer for their interest shown in this manuscript by accepting to be members of my defense committee. I really would like to thank Mariia Karpacheva, Andreas ‘Bernd’ Bellan and Maximilian Ganiek for the careful correction of this manuscript. Furthermore, I would like to thank all the past and present members I have met in the Knochel group for all the moments and activities inside and outside the lab and for making my three years in the group a great experience. Especially I want to consider all my former and actual lab mates of F2.001b, Dr. Nadja Barl, Dr. Andreas Steib, Laura Kohout, Dr. Julia Nafe, Maximilian Ganiek, Andreas Bellan and Mariia Karpacheva, who gave me the best working and living atmosphere one can imagine. Moreover, I would like to thank Peter Dowling, Sophie Hansen, Dr. Vladimir Malakhov and Yulia Tsvik for their huge helps organizing everyday life in the lab and the office. Finally, I would like to thank my whole family, my parents, my sister and Masha bear for every possible support, for their love, patience and believe in me.
