    Acuña-Parés, Ferran (Fecha de defensa: 2016-07-20)

    One of the major current scientific goals is the development of renewable energy sources. An effective alternative to fossil fuels consists in the conversion of the sunlight energy into chemical fuels. The molecular hydrogen ...

    Transition metal-catalysed [2+2+2] cycloaddition reactions. Methodology and mechanism 

    Parera Briansó, Magda (Fecha de defensa: 2014-05-20)

    The transition-metal catalysed [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction is a highly efficient synthetic tool that allows six-membered polysubstituted carbo- and heterocyclic derivatives to be obtained in an atom economy process. ...

    Understanding C-H oxidation and amination reactions performed by late first-row transition metals: trapping high-valent metal-O/N species 

    Corona Prieto, Teresa (Fecha de defensa: 2017-02-17)

    The transformation of C-H bonds into C-O/N bonds is a process of interest in organic synthesis, but controlling the reactivity and selectivity among the multiple C-H bonds existing in most molecules is a challenging task. ...
