Interactions between electrons determine the structure and properties of matter from molecules to solids. Therefore, the understanding of the electronic structure of molecules will enable us to extract ...
Ubasart Clarà, Ernest (Date of defense: 2022-10-28)
The development of supramolecular assemblies with big cavities is important to recognize specific guests or infer a chemo- or regioselective chemistry, in analogy to natural enzymes. The objective of ...
Corona Prieto, Teresa (Date of defense: 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 ...
Dantignana, Valeria (Date of defense: 2020-12-03)
Selective oxidation of C-H bonds is an important reaction, as it can disclose novel synthetic strategies to get functionalized products through efficient paths. Nonetheless, due to the inert character ...

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 ...
Rodríguez Serrat, Mònica (Date of defense: 2019-09-27)
In the last decades, carbenes have shown a huge potential and versatility in organometallic and organic chemistry. In each of these fields, first row transition metal chemistry is less developed than ...
Ben Amar, Marwa (Date of defense: 2021-10-22)
Wastewater discharged from industrial and agricultural activities contains relatively large amounts of toxic metal ions, especially including Cd(II), Cu(II), Pb (II), and Cr(VI). The removal of these ...
