Homogeneous catalysis is a main research area in modern chemistry due to its enourmos application potential. Molecular complexes of precious metals like palladium, platinum and rhodium are predominantly used as catalysts. Unfortunately, because of their low abundance, they are sensitive towards supply fluctuations and the cost of the precious metals and complexes thereof are usually very high. In addition, environmental implications are associated with their complex mining processes. Therefore, there is an ongoing interest to replace those metals by their lighter congeners or to use main-group compounds as catalysts instead.The proposed project deals with a promising class of compounds for both approaches, namely four-membered heterocyclic biradicaloids. These compounds constitute a subgroup of open-shell singlet species which usually show a high reactivity. Preliminary work by the groups of Schulz and Grützmacher include the activation of dihydrogen, ammonia and multiple-bond systems. The aim of this project is the further exploration of this intriguing class of compounds. Thereby, the ultimate goal is the incorporation of the studied reactivity into catalytic cycles. To achieve this goal, the reactivity of known systems is going to be studied further and also, new biradicaloid systems based on silicon and arsenic will be synthesised. Additionally, the heterocyclic biradicaloids will be utilised as redox-active sandwich ligands for 3d transition-metals in order to mimic precious-metal behaviour in catalytic reactions.

均相催化因其巨大的应用潜力而成为现代化学的一个重要研究领域。钯、铂和铑等贵金属的分子络合物主要用作催化剂。不幸的是，由于它们的丰度低，它们对供应波动很敏感，而且贵金属及其复合物的成本通常很高。此外，其复杂的采矿过程也对环境造成影响。因此，人们一直有兴趣用较轻的同系物代替这些金属，或者用主基化合物作为催化剂。提出的项目涉及一类有前途的化合物，即四元杂环双二萜。这些化合物是开壳单线态化合物的一个亚群，通常具有较高的反应活性。Schulz和grgr tzmacher小组的初步工作包括激活二氢、氨和多键系统。这个项目的目的是进一步探索这类有趣的化合物。因此，最终目标是将所研究的反应性纳入催化循环。为了实现这一目标，我们将进一步研究已知体系的反应性，同时合成基于硅和砷的新型双根碱体系。此外，杂环双二萜将被用作三维过渡金属的氧化还原活性夹层配体，以模拟催化反应中的贵金属行为。
