A bio-inspired hypoxia sensor using HIF1a-oxygen-dependent degradation domain
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)Functional imaging has become an important tool in oncology because it not only provides information about the size and localization of the tumour, but also about the pathophysiological features of the tumoural cells. ... -
Biocompatible Solvents and Ionic Liquid-Based Surfactants as Sustainable Components to Formulate Environmentally Friendly Organized Systems
(MDPI, 2021)In this review, we deal with the formation and application of biocompatible water-in-oil microemulsions commonly known as reverse micelles (RMs). These RMs are extremely important to facilitate the dissolution of hydrophilic ... -
Biodegradable PEG–dendritic block copolymers: synthesis and biofunctionality assessment as vectors of siRNA
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-07-07)One important drawback of most of the currently used dendrimers for biomedical applications is their high stability under physiological conditions that can result in cytotoxicity or complications induced by the accumulation ... -

(Wiley, 2021)Tailored ruthenium sandwich complexes bearing photoresponsive arene ligands can efficiently promote azide–thioalkyne cycloaddition (RuAtAC) when irradiated with UV light. The reactions can be performed in a bioorthogonal ... -
A C60-aryne building block: synthesis of a hybrid all-carbon nanostructure
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-04-19)The synthesis of a [60]fullerene-benzyne building block and its further chemical cycloaddition reaction with graphene has resulted in a new all-carbon hybrid material which has been characterized by TGA, FTIR and Raman ... -
[C^N]‐Alkenyl Gold(III) Complexes by Proximal Ring‐Opening of (2‐Pyridyl)alkylidenecyclopropanes: Mechanistic Insights
(Wiley, 2020)Pyridine‐substituted alkylidenecyclopropanes (Py‐ACPs) react with gold(III) salts under mild reaction conditions through an unprecedented, proximal ring‐opening pathway, to generate highly appealing, catalytically active ... -
Calculation of the two-dimensional non-separable partition function for two molecular systems
(Springer, 2014-04-02)We present the application of an accurate quantum treatment, called two-dimensional non-separable (2D-NS), to the calculation of internal rotation partition functions of molecules with two rotors. This methodology involves ... -
Canonical DNA minor groove insertion of bisbenzamidine–Ru(ii) complexes with chiral selectivity
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019)We report the first Ru(II) coordination compounds that interact with DNA through a canonical minor groove insertion mode and with selectivity for A/T rich sites. This was made possible by integrating a bis-benzamidine minor ... -
Catalytic addition of C–H bonds across C–C unsaturated systems promoted by iridium(i) and its group IX congeners
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)Transition metal-catalyzed hydrocarbonations of unsaturated substrates have emerged as powerful synthetic tools for increasing molecular complexity in an atom-economical manner. Although this field was traditionally dominated ... -
Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Butenolides and Butyrolactones
(American Chemical Society, 2017-06-22)γ-Butenolides, γ-butyrolactones, and derivatives, especially in enantiomerically pure form, constitute the structural core of numerous natural products which display an impressive range of biological activities which are ... -
Catalytic Cyclization of o‐Alkynyl Phenethylamines via Osmacyclopropene Intermediates: Direct Access to Dopaminergic 3‐Benzazepines
(Wiley, 2015)A novel osmium‐catalyzed cyclization of o‐alkynyl phenethylamines to give 3‐benzazepines is reported. The procedure allows the straightforward preparation of a broad range of dopaminergic 3‐benzazepine derivatives. Mechanistic ... -
