Investigating the Role of Nano Catalysts of Carbon Quantum Dots Doped by Small Biomolecules in the Formation of Carbon-Nitrogen Bonds
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Kalhor, Hamid Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs) are a new class of zero-dimensional carbon-based nanoparticles with a size range from 1 to 10 nanometers. In this study, it was tried to form new carbon-nitrogen bond in organic synthesis using non-metal CQD-catalysis, thereby taking a significant step towards enhancing the catalytic role of carbon nanoparticles. Carbon-nitrogen bond is of paramount importance in biology and organic chemistry. In this regard transamidation reaction, reductive amination, and thioureas syntheses as three important reactions in organic chemistry were explored using non-metal CQD-catalysis. Transamidation is mainly used to produce new amides by forming carbon-nitrogen bond. This...
