    Hydrodechlorination of aromatic compounds.
    (1998) Karparova, Marina Alexandrova
    It is well known that chlorinated organic compounds behave as highly toxic substances in the environment. Catalytic hydrodechlorination .... one of the more convenient approaches used to treat chlorinated organic substances with the aim of obtaining compounds with lower or null toxiciy. Further, the selective cleavage of the C-Cl bond plays a key role in processes related to the manufacture of fine chemicals. These reactions can be performed over noble-metal catalysts, either in the gas or liquid phase. (Abbreviation abstract)

    Novel syntheses of 5- and 7- azaindole derivatives
    (2014-03-05) Leboho, Tlabo Caiphus
    This thesis describes the application of the Sonogashira coupling reaction to access a variety of 5-and 7-azaindoles derivatives. The background chapter paints a picture about the importance of indole-containing compounds and azaindole-containing compounds. In this first chapter, discovery, synthesis, properties and reactivity of indole and azaindoles were explained.
