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…
The incredible number of bioactive natural products containing tetrahydrofuran (THF) and tetrahydropyran derivatives (THP) have been driven the development of new methods of preparing functionalized cyclic ethers. This research project will focus on the development and application of new synthetic methodologies involving the preparation of substituted cyclic ethers for the synthesis of na…
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, …
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…

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…
Nitroolefins have emerged as important building blocks for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles, representing an important advance in the search for more efficient and selective alternatives of these units. Several types of reactional systems have been used highlighting the possibility of direct use of sodium azides (leading to the preparation of 1H-1,2,3-triazoles) as well as substituted azi…
We aim in this work the mechanistic study using theoretical calculations of the cycloaddition reaction (3 +2) 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between organic azides and alkylidene-malononitriles. Our work will focus on the investigation of the transition states involved in the stages of cycloaddition and elimination, seeking to find the determining step in this catalytic cycle, understanding th…

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…
