The global scientific objective of this project is to develop new tools for the elaboration of important nitrogen-containing molecules, using one-pot and transition metal-catalyzed processes. The creation of C-N bonds is one of the important challenges in synthetic organic chemistry, as these bonds are found in many molecules possessing important biological properties. Although a number of methods have been previously reported, improvements of the existing technologies as well as developments of novel approaches are still highly desirable. Our goal is not only to develop more efficient synthetic strategies, but also to converge towards greener processes, by using new catalyzed-reactions, and new multicatalytic strategies, which considerably decrease the amount of required reagents and solvents, thus producing less waste and byproducts.
