Muñiz

Research group


Abstract

The Muñiz group has continued with its efforts to develop sustainable synthetic methodology for advanced oxidative transformation of organic molecules. For 2015, work on this topic focussed on the realisation of economic transformations under environmentally benign metal-free conditions. Major advances were made in the area of hypervalent iodine(III) chemistry and molecular iodine catalysis.

Topics addressed

  • Metal-free boryation by hypervalent iodine chemistry
  • Iodine-catalysed aliphatic C-H amination
