This thesis is divided into two main parts. The first, being the evaluation of existing catalytic reactions under the modern aspects of “Green Chemistry”. Energy conservation, atom economy, minimization of waste, side product recycling and use of renewable feedstocks were optimized in systems evaluated, and comparisons to previously know systems made. The second part is focused on carbocyclic carbene synthesis and application of carbocyclic and remote N-heterocyclic carbene complexes in C-N cross coupling reactions and decarboxylative biaryl synthesis.
