Corsi

Welcome to the course of Catalysis for the international curriculum "Complex and Data Drive Chemistry" of the MS degree in Chemistry.

International students still abroad and waiting for their visa must enrol and get the link to the live on-line classes (no recordings will be available).

For students already allowed to come to Padova attendance is in person only.

The goal of this course is to introduce the students to the use of transition metal catalysts in homogeneous catalysis. In particular the following arguments will be discussed in detail:

  1. Introduction to chemical kinetics and to homogenous organotransition metal catalysts;
  2. Basic reactions in homogenous organotransition metal catalysis;
  3. Pd-catalyzed cross-couplings and related reactions: from C-C to C-X;
  4. Ni-catalysed cross-couplings;
  5. Introduction on carbene chemistry, carbene transfer and olefin metathesis;
  6. Homogeneous Hydrogenation: from discovery to new catalyst design;
  7. Organometallic fine chemical synthesis with unsaturated substrates;
  8. CO2 valorization reactions.
Teachers: BIFFIS Andrea (6 hours), BISMUTO Alessandro (8 hours), TUBARO Cristina (6 hours), ZECCA Marco (4 hours).

Curriculum: Chemical Sciences

Duration: 24 hours
