The J. Phys. Chem. C journal features on its front cover of the January 2025 issue the research article “Density Functional Theory Investigation of 2D Phase Separated Graphene / Hexagonal Boron Nitride Monolayers; Bandgap, Band Edge Positions and Photo-Activity” by Prof. Marcel Swart in collaboration with Dr. Eoin M. O’Sullivan and Prof. Nicole Grobert group. The corresponding paper was
Nonheme iron enzymes utilize S = 2 iron(IV)-oxo intermediates as oxidants in biological oxygenations. In contrast, corresponding synthetic nonheme FeIV=O complexes characterized to date favor the S = 1 ground state that generally show much poorer oxidative reactivity than their S = 2 counterparts. However, one intriguing exception found by Nam a decade ago is
Next Tuesday will be the defense of the doctoral thesis of Cristina Castanyer Caballé, titled “Exploring the use of Rh-catalyzed cyclization reactions for the functionalization of fullerenes.”, supervised by Dr. Anna Pla-Quintana, Prof. Miquel Solà and Prof. Anna Roglans from IQCC. The jury members will be Dr. Louis Fensterbank (Sorbonne Université), Prof. Xavi Ribas (IQCC-Universitat de Girona) and Dr. Montserrat Diéguez (Universitat Rovira i Virgili).
