1. 1. 2-Hydroxypyridine-Ligated Pd-complexes as pre-catalysts in Hydrogen Borrowing Chemistry α -Alkylation of Ketones Using Alcohols

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

   Author : Ayesha Kanwal; [2017]
   Keywords : Hydrogen Borrowing in activation of alcohols; Palladium in Catalysis; hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions; hydrogen borrowing concept for hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions; 2-hydroxyquinoline Ligand; 2-hydroxy pyridine ligands; inorganic chemistry; oorganisk kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : An efficient method for selective alpha-alkylation of ketones with alcohols was developed using 2-hydroxypyridine-based ligands coordinated by palladium as pre-catalysts. The reactions were performed without additional additives under mild reaction conditions. The method is environmentally friendly to build C-C bond as water is the only byproduct. READ MORE

3. 2. In-situ remediation of benzene-contaminated groundwater – A bench-scale study.

   University essay from KTH/Mark- och vattenteknik

   Author : Sofia Billersjö; [2013]
   Keywords : ISCO; bioremediation; hydrogen peroxide; Fenton’s reagent; persulfate; calcium peroxide;

   Abstract : During the construction of the new urban area in the north-eastern part of Stockholm, Stockholm Royal Seaport, groundwater with extremely elevated levels of the carcinogenic aromatic hydrocarbon benzene was discovered in the area Hjorthagen. Such a contamination can be remediated in-situ by the use of chemical oxidation and biodegradation. READ MORE
