About

The applied organometallics group of the University of Padua is a young and dynamic group that enthusiastically carries out cutting-edge research on various fronts of transition metal chemistry. In particular, it ranges from catalysis to bioinorganic chemistry to optoelectronics.

News

New paper about Cu nanowires

If you want to know about the correlation between the Cu nanowires morphology and structure and their catalytic activity and selectivity toward CO2 electroreduction, read this new paper of our group about this topic.

New organometallic paper!

Our new work about the reductive CO2 fixation with amines and hydrosilanes using readily available Cu(II) NHC–phenolate catalyst precursors is now available here!

Other contributions in the field of organometallic synthesis and catalysis can be found in the dedicated section.

Open positions

Postdoc position

A postdoc position on the “Synthesis and characterization of (electro)chemiluminescent dyes” to carry out research activity related to the project “BioPoweredCL” “Bright and biologically powered chemiluminescent labels for cell and tissue imaging” has been opened.
