Our research group is dedicated to pioneering new concepts in catalysis. The first part of the presentation will highlight our latest advancements in the activation of H−P bonds, which have facilitated the catalytic creation of chiral ligands and the synthesis of enantiomerically pure Z-alkenes featuring a tertiary allylic stereocenter. Subsequently, the focus will shift towards exploring beyond traditional catalytic strategies. We havebeen working on creating catalytic systems thatworkwithin complex networks of reactions andwe have introduced a new concept of oscillating catalysis. A particular emphasis will be placed on the development and application of a small organic molecule that functions as a catalytic oscillator.
