CCVC Seminar: Melanie Sanford - Development of New Reactions for the Introduction of Fluorine into Organic Molecules

Tuesday, May 5, 2015 13:00to14:30
Maass Chemistry Building Room 10, 801 rue Sherbrooke Ouest, Montreal, QC, H3A 0B8, CA

This presentation will discuss our group's recent work ondeveloping new transition metal catalyzed methods for introducing fluorine and trifluoromethyl groups into organic molecules. Mechanistic and organometallic aspects of this work will be discussed in detail. In addition, applications to complex molecules, particularly in the context of PET imaging applications will be discussed.
