New Approaches to Catalytic C-H andC-C Bond Cleavage with RutheniumComplexesVon der Fakultät für Mathematik, Informatik und Naturwissenschaftender Rheinisch-Westfälischen Technischen Hochschule Aachen zur Erlangung desakademischen Grades einer Doktorin der Naturwissenschaften genehmigte Dissertationvorgelegt vonDiplom-ChemikerinDaniela Giuntaaus SassariBerichter: Universitätsprofessor Dr. Walter Leitner Universitätsprofessor Dr. Jun OkudaTag der mündlichen Prüfung: 18. Juni 2004Diese Dissertation ist auf den Internetseiten der Hochschulbibliothek online verfügbar.The experimental part of the work has been carried out in the period between November2000 to June 2002 in the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung in Mülheim an der Ruhrand between July 2002 to August 2003 in the Institut für Technische und MakromolekulareChemie RWTH-Aachen, in the reasearch group of Prof. Dr. Walter Leitner.I wish to thank Professor Dr. Walter Leitner for the opportunity to work in his group,his interest, and enthusiasm in the helpful discussions about the scientific and more technicalproblems. I also would like to thank him for supporting my active participation to manyinternational scientific meetings and conferences.I would like to thank the former director of the "Max-Planck-Institut fürKohlenforschung", Prof. Dr. Manfred T.
