The Centre of Excellence for Research in Sustainable Chemistry (CERSusChem) was established in 2016 by the FAPESP Engineering Research Centers Program (CPE) and was co-financed by the pharmaceutical industry GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). The CERSusChem activities are based on the 3 pillars: research, innovation, and knowledge dissemination. Continuing our efforts in the development of new sustai…
In this research project, we will explore the methodological development as well as the use of chemo-informatics and other physical- organic chemistry tools applied to catalyzed organic reactions. We will seek in an integrated way the mechanistic understanding, the design of catalysts aiming to increase efficiency and selectivity, as well as the exploration of structural diversity/chemica…
In this research project we will explore the methodological development and mechanistic studies of organic reactions, using a set of physical organic chemistry tools, including multi-dimensional predictive models. To this end, we will investigate new physical-chemical descriptors for understanding, prediction and design of metal catalysts. We intend to explore the enantioselective synthes…

Amides are ubiquitous functional groups in organic molecules and hold great relevance for the pharmaceutical and materials industries. However, their direct synthesis from carboxylic acids and amines remains inefficient, with the predominant use of stoichiometric amounts of coupling agents for substrate activation, leading to large volumes of waste. The development of catalytic methodolog…
Ensuring molecular diversity and structural complexity in a chemical space implies the continuous advancement of synthetic methodologies. The incorporation of fluorine into organic molecules, particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, is a highlighted theme. While these molecules hold industrial relevance, their presence in natural products is scarce, underscoring the critical need for …
We propose in this research project the development of statistical models for predicting reactivity in organic reactions catalyzed by transition metals using consolidated strategies of correlation between the catalyst structure with its catalytic activity and also using models based on machine learning. We intend to explore molybdenum catalyzed olefin metathesis reactions aiming to develo…
Methodologies involving the use of Pd complexes combined with the use of visible light have reached a unique range of applicability compared to other metals, leading to the formation of radical species in pairs of the type [Pd(I) + *R]. The great appeal of this methodology has been the possibility in the use of alkyl partners of low reactivity, when compared to conventional oxidative addi…
Transition metal-photoredox reactions have become a growing research area in the past few years. In particular, for Pd-photoredox reactions, the dual function of the catalyst plays an important role in the development of this methodology. The palladium complex acts as a photoredox catalyst maintaining its classical versatility in subsequent reactions, allowing the formation of new bonds, …
The development of cost-effective and efficient methodologies for biomass processing by the chemical industry is a matter of intense research, which marks an important transition from an oil-based economy to a biobased and sustainable one. The following project invests in the lignin depolymerization interface using Co(salen) catalysts for the generation of aromatic compounds, with the obj…

Exploration of chemical transformation in a time-resolved fashion by introduction of molecular dynamics trajectory simulations has boosted studies of chemical dynamics. These simulations disclose how the motion and momenta of molecules induce the reactivity and selectivity of chemical reactions. A class of reaction that could be favored by molecular dynamics is the syn-elimination (Ei mec…
The main objective of this project is the application of stereoselective oxo-palladation reactions aiming the synthesis of heterocycles of biological interest, where the formation of the sigma-Pd (II) intermediate should be used in subsequently variations. To do so, two approaches will be applied. The first focuses on the synthesis of 2-isoxazolinic, which, despite a high occurrence, few…
