Description:Independent Proposal Seminar\n\nMicrosoft Teams Link\n\nAbout t
 he Seminar:\n\nMetal carbenoids are versatile intermediates\, facilitating
  C-C and C-heteroatom bond formation in a variety of examples. The most co
 mmon approach to generate a carbenoid is by metal-induced decomposition of
  diazo compounds. While diazo compounds serve as the precursor in many use
 ful carbenoid-mediated transformations\, their thermal instability and cha
 llenging preparation (from shock and heat sensitive precursors) make them 
 difficult to use in large scale applications. It is essential that stable 
 alternatives are developed to enable further uptake of this chemistry in i
 ndustrial processes. Alternative precursors may also lead to metal carbeno
 ids for which the diazo compound is difficult to access\, expanding the sc
 ope of this valuable chemistry. We propose deoxygenation strategies to tra
 nsform 1\,2-dicarbonyl compounds and a-hydroxy carbonyl compounds into me
 tal-carbenoids via oxyphosphorane intermediates.10:00 am
