Outline of Final Research Achievements

Current synthetic methods depend on the ue of reactive chemical bonds. To change this situation, we have developed catalytic trasnformations of strong sigma bonds, in paricular those other than carbon-hydrogen bonds, which are the subject of intensive studies. Specific chemical bonds that we successfully used for catalytic transformations include carbon-carbon, carbon-oxygen, carbon-nitrogen, and carbon-phosphorus bonds. Through this study, we have expanded our own strategy for the activation of strong sigma bonds via the mechanism other than classical oxidative addition.
