First Step 2008

1. Preparation and characterisation of mono- and bis-pyrazoles from the corresponding chalcones.
2. Carbometallation and subsequent functionalisation of the pyrazolylphenothiazines.
3. Spectroscopic characterisation and molecular modelling of the metallacycles and 3,4-disubstituted- and 3,4,6,7-tetrasubstituted phenothiazines.

Second Step 2009

4. Preparation and characterisation of chiral bis-hydrazones of C2-symmetry.
5. Carbometallation and subsequent functionalisation of the chiral bis-hydrazones associated with cross-coupling- and condensation reactions.
