Activation of small molecules by solid-supported frustrated Lewis pairs
- Abstract:
-
The aims of this thesis have been to develop heterogeneous frustrated Lewis pairs for the catalytic activation of small molecules. Frustrated Lewis pairs capable of H2 activation and CO2 hydrogenation based on electron-deficient tri-aryl boranes and sterically encumbered phosphines have been immobilised on silica. The reactivity of these heterogeneous systems with small molecules has been tested and compared with a variety of soluble siloxane and silsesquioxane molecu...
