Most of the organic molecules used in chemical industry (and their synthetic precursors) contain oxygen atoms in their structure. One of the most convenient methods for the preparation of oxygenated ...
Font Rubio, Pau (Date of defense: 2023-10-06)
Homogeneous reactions catalyzed by gold have mainly been developed in the past two decades, stemming from the proneness of Au(I) and Au(III) complexes to coordinate and activate carbon-carbon multiple ...
