Outline of Research at the Start |
In this work, combined theoretical calculations (AFIR, DFT, etc.) and experimental methodologies will be utilized for the construction of efficient catalytic system that will enable the competent functionalization of remote C-H bonds from simple and readily available feedstocks.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
With our interest in the development of novel methodologies for the transformation of C-H bonds in readily available feedstock chemicals, we previously demonstrated the competent activation and subsequent asymmetric borylation of g-C(sp3)-H bonds under Ir catalysis. Our collaboration with ICReDD scientists has given us infinite opportunity to further extend the reactivity of our catalytic system. Thus, guided by calculation derived transition-state models, we recently succeeded in the asymmetric borylation of more distal C-H bonds in the aliphatic hydrocarbon chain of common and readily available chemical feedstocks including biomass resources allowing for a more sustainable and efficient organic synthesis. Thereby, the borylation of e-C-H bonds, located five carbons away from the carbonyl group of the substrate, has been achieved - a direct functionalization realized using a modularly designed supramolecular catalytic assembly.
