    Titanium(IV) enolate chemistry applied to the stereoselective construction of C–C and C–O bonds. New ionic and radical processes 

    Gómez Palomino, Alejandro (Date of defense: 2018-11-27)

    In the present Thesis we continued a previous study of the nucleophilic character of titanium(IV) enolates. Particularly,we focused our attention on the analysis of substrate-controlled Michael additions to enones and other ...

    Understanding the physical origin, topology and strength of noncovalent interactions by means of computational tools 

    Velasquez Benites, Juan Diego (Date of defense: 2022-07-14)

    The structure and stability of molecules, the formation of supramolecular aggregates in the solid state or in solution and, therefore, many chemical and biological processes in which they participate depend heavily on ...

    Understanding the transport mechanism of BBB peptide shuttles: THRre and MiniAp-4 as case studies 

    Fuster Juncà, Cristina (Date of defense: 2019-06-14)

    The research work presented in this thesis aims to understand the transport mechanism of two described BBB-shuttles, THRre and MiniAp-4. To achieve these objectives, different techniques have been used as solid phase peptide ...

    Unveiling Protein-Substrate Interactions and Conformations that Influence Catalysis in Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes 

    Raich Armendáriz, Lluís Adrià (Date of defense: 2018-06-14)

    Enzymes have attracted the attention of chemists and biologists since long ago due to their molecular complexity and tremendous efficiency. They are highly specific catalysts that make chemical reactions possible at mild ...
