mechanism and to investigate the application of the methodology in peptide and medicinal chemistry.
Metal-halide perovskites have garnered intensive interest because of their extraordinary properties for photovoltaic applications. In the last years, the maximum obtained efficiency of perovskite absorbers for this application has risen substantially, up to a maximum of 22%, thereby rapidly closing the gap with the efficiency of more traditional photovoltaic materials. The further development of these perovskites for photovoltaic and other ...
Transition metal catalysis lies at the heart of modern innovative science. To expand this area in organic synthesis, the challenge is to identify novel strategies for the formation of organo-metallic intermediates under mild conditions, and to discover new methods for their subsequent transformation. In this proposal we will focus on the trapping of transient C(sp3)- and C(sp2)-Pd species via C-H activation, or employing oxygen/nitrogen ...
