Design and development of a deoxyfluorination method using transition metal fluorides
(University of St Andrews, 2020-12-01) - ThesisThe installation of a C–F bond in organic molecules is of significant importance to the scientific community due to its ability to modulate a compound’s physicochemical properties. For this reason, organofluorine compounds ... -
Novel magnetic materials with chemically-tailorable interactions
(2024-06-13) - ThesisThe investigation of compound KFe(C₂O₄)F was the impetus for this work as it was found to have interesting frustrated magnetic properties and became the first member of a family of transition metal oxalate fluorides which ... -
Methods for C-C and C-N bond formation using earth-abundant metals
(University of St Andrews, 2020-07-29) - ThesisThe formation of C–C and C–N bonds via transition metal catalysis is important in both academia and industry. Traditionally, both these fields have been dominated by the use of precious metal catalysts, with two of the ... -
Synthesis, properties and applications of all-cis-pentafluorocyclohexane 'Janus' ring building blocks
(University of St Andrews, 2022-06-15) - ThesisStrategically fluorinated compounds such as the all-cis-pentafluorocyclohexane ‘Janus’ rings, the subject of this research, can have strong molecular dipole moments because the electronegative fluorines polarise the geminal ...
