(America Chemical Society, 2022-07-14)The direct oxidation of benzene into phenol using molecular oxygen at very mild temperatures can be promoted in the presence of the copper complex TpBr3Cu(NCMe) in the homogeneous phase in the presence of ascorbic acid as ... -
Efect of low‑frequency ultrasound on disaggregation, growth and viability of an extremotolerant cyanobacterium
(Springer, 2022)The eficacy of low-frequency ultrasound pulses in cell disaggregation of Chroococcidiopsis sp. aggregates has been studied as a possible strategy to improve the productivity and operation of the cultures. The modulation ... -
Toward Light-Controlled Supramolecular Peptide Dimerization
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-01)The selective photodeprotection of the NVoc-modified FGG tripeptide yields the transformation of its 1:1 receptor−ligand complex with cucurbit[8]uril into a homoternary FGG2@CB8 assembly. The resulting lightinduced ... -
Selective Functionalization of Arene C(sp2 )−H Bonds by Gold Catalysis: The Role of Carbene Substituents
(American Chemical Society, 2022-05-25)The complete regioselective incorporation of carbene units to nonactivated arene rings has been achieved employing gold(I) catalysts bearing alkoxydiaminophosphine ligands, with readily available, nonelaborated ethyl ... -
Introducing the Catalytic Amination of Silanes via Nitrene Insertion
(American Chemical Society, 2022-06-01)The direct functionalization of Si−H bonds by the nitrene insertion methodology is described. A copper(I) complex bearing a trispyrazolylborate ligand catalyzes the transfer of a nitrene group from PhINTs to the Si−H bond ... -
Potential release and bioaccessibility of metal/loids from mine wastes deposited in historical abandoned sulfide mines
(Elsevier, 2022)This study deals with the potential release of metal/loids from sulfide mine wastes upon weathering and the health risks associated with their accidental ingestion. To address this, a complete chemical and mineralogical ... -
Mechanistic Studies on the Synthesis of Pyrrolidines and Piperidines via Copper-Catalyzed Intramolecular C–H Amination
(American Chemical Society, 2022)We have recently developed a method for the synthesis of pyrrolidines and piperidines via intramolecular C–H amination of N-fluoride amides using [TpxCuL] complexes as precatalysts [Tpx = tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligand and ... -
Promising Chalcogenide Hybrid Copolymers for Sustainable Applications as Bio-lubricants and Metal Adsorbents
(American Chemical Society, 2022)Inverse vulcanization has emerged as a reaction to achieve hybrid inorganic–organic polymeric materials, which allows us to use the high amount of sulfur produced during refining crude oil as a raw material. In this study, ... -
Impact of “chemical cocktails” exposure in shaping mice gut microbiota and the role of selenium supplementation combining metallomics, metabolomics, and metataxonomics
(Elsevier, 2022-06-20)Biological systems are exposed to a complex environment in which pollutants can interact through synergistic or antagonistic mechanisms, but limited information is available on the combined effects. To this end, ... -
