Teachings

Publications

Author of more than 60 papers on international journals (Angewandte Chemie, Organometallics, Chemistry European Journal, Chemical Communications, Organic Letters).

Research Area

Synthesis and study of polyaromatic organic ligands (e.g. indene, s- and as-indacene, trindene, cyclopentaphenantrene, benzothiophene, benzotrithiophene, oligopeptide of the alfa-aminoisobutyric acid, idantoins) and of their (multi)ferrocenyl complexes.

Study of the electron transfer dynamics in (multi)metallic complexes induced by chemical and electrochemical techniques: spectroelectrochemistry detection of Ligand-to-Metal, Metal-to-Ligand and Inter-Valence Charge Transfer transitions (LMCT, MLCT and IVCT).

Thesis proposals

1. (Multi)ferrocenyl peptides
2. Optoelectronic systems of ferrocenyl diazobenzene
3. Electronic materials based on ferrocenyl derivatives of benzotrophene
