The synthetic exploration of compounds (C1) derived from CO2, such as methanol, formaldehyde, formic acid, formic esters and formamide, is an alternative way to incorporate carbon into highly complex molecules with high added value. The most studied C1 compound in the literature is carbon dioxide, however its participation in chemical reactions with low energy efficiency and atomic effici…
In this project we intend to explore the reactivity of formamide (HCONH2) as an alternative pathway of CO2 incorporation to produce renewable polymers, investigating different catalyzed reactions, including metallo-, photo- and bio-catalysis. Initially, we intend to study the feasibility of producing formamide using CO2 as a C1 carbon source, using hydrogen (H2) as a reducing agent and am…
Formamide is an organic compound mainly used as solvent in several industrial applications. Due to its wide application, large quantities and low price are commercial available. Recently, we have shown for the first time that carbamoyl radicals prepared from formamides can be applied to synthetize important heterocyclic compounds. Considering the relevance of different classes of heterocy…
Photochemistry is a growing field and has shown many interesting synthetic applications in recent years. In this work, we propose to investigate some radical reactions with formamides. Initially, we propose to carry out methodological studies to evaluate the addition of carbamoyl radicals to electron deficient olefins and aromatic compounds evaluating the scope and limitations of the meth…

Given the important biological activity of heterocycles and their industrially and academic relevance, this project seeks to develop an efficient methodology for the synthesis of new highly substituted heterocycles. It is a cascade cyclization reaction of eninacrylamides with the carbamoyl radical for synthesis of ³-lactone fused quinolinones. It is intended to synthesize the substrate (N…
The use of vanadium-dependent haloperoxidases has presented several challenges when it comes to selectivity, the most challenging being the high reactivity of the halogenated species generated by the enzyme. Another challenge is the inactivation of the enzyme through the oxidizing agent, when it is in excess, or in prolonged contact with the enzyme. It is believed that the use of a reacto…
This project is based on the idea of bio-mimetics of carboxypeptidase and nitrogenase enzymes. Nitrogenase analogues include the idea of an iron-dinitrogen cluster, which is active in the reaction of nitrogen reduction to ammonia and hydrazine. These products nowadays have an industrial importance, since ammonia is synthesized by the Haber-Bosh process at high temperatures and pressures, …

CO2 is a C1 building block, but it has a great importance, since it can be used for making several organic chemicals. Besides, it can be considered an economical, safe, and renewable carbon source. In this project, we will develop an enzymatic system to transform CO2 under continuous flow. Two strategies will be employed. The first one is dedicated to the co-immobilization of formate dehy…
