Description
- In recent years, the study of restricted rotation bonds in organic compounds has aroused increasing interest. The reason is that this characteristic can lead to obtaining new properties in organic compounds. In this research thesis, an intense investigation was carried out using DFT calculations and experimental evaluation of the barriers to rotational energies, in order to discover new properties deriving from the restricted rotation bonds. Research has been developed in various fields of organic chemistry, ranging from drugs (the atropisomeric atorvastatin in Chapter 3) to luminescent compounds (aryls amino borane in Chapter 4). Furthermore, an organocatalytic central to axial conversion mechanism was investigated through DFT calculations, finding out interesting outcomes (Chapter 5). Finally, a project in collaboration with Dr. Farran and Prof. Vanthuyne of the Aix-Marseille University was done to investigate the interactions in transition states of rotational barriers.
