Abstract
English
Catalysis is arguably the most impactful area of chemistry for society today, driven by the urgent need for highly efficient and environmentally benign reactions. C−H activation, which allows for the direct introduction of functional groups into substrate molecules without prior functionalization, represents a significant advancement over traditional cross-coupling reactions. This thesis focuses on three main areas: the perfluoroarylation of benzene, the arylation of benzoxazoles using in situ generated tosylates, and, finally, the arylation of C(sp2)−H and C(sp3)−H bonds by chelation assistance. In the last project, a novel triazole directing group (TAM) has been employed, demonstrating its effectiveness in facilitating these transformations.
