The Hiyama reaction, which features organosilicon derived cross-coupling partners with aryl chlorides, remains relatively underdeveloped compared to other cross-coupling reactions. In this thesis, it is demonstrated that bench stable Palladium N-… more Full Text: PALLADIUM N-HETEROCYCLIC CARBENE COMPLEXES IN CROSS-COUPLING REACTIONS: LIGAND AND CATALYST DEVELOPMENT A Thesis Submitted to the Committee of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Faculty …
