Muñiz

Research group


Abstract

The Muñiz group has continued the development of new synthetic methodology for advanced oxidative amination of organic molecules. For 2014, 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 halogenated amide reagents.

Topics addressed

  • Metal-free amination by hypervalent iodine chemistry
  • Metal-mediated amination using copper reagents
