Development of catalytic processes by chiral perovskites
Scientific-Disciplinary Group
03/CHEM-05 - Organic Chemistry
Description
The project involves the use of chiral perovskites as photocatalysts in asymmetric organic synthesis.Perovskites have been extensively studied for their ability to reduce CO , whereas their application as catalysts in organic synthesis remains limited.The research activity aims to explore photochemical methodologies catalyzed by chiral metal halides for the enantioselective synthesis of organic molecules.One possible strategy consists of the photochemical reduction of CO followed by its addition to an olefinic substrate, in order to obtain the corresponding chiral acid.The perovskites will be synthesized from elements obtained from electrical and electronic waste
