Development of Novel CO2 Fixation Reactions Guided by Quantum Chemical Calculations
キーワード
Dearomative carboxylation, CO2 radical anion, electrochemical reduction
研究概要
During my PhD, I was focused on the development of Cooperative Organometallic Catalysts for nucleophilic addition towards internal alkynes and for transformation of stable C-O bonds. Currrently, I am devoted to the reduction of aromatic compounds through electrochemistry, guided by quantum chemical calculations.
