What a nice week!

Three new papers of our group are online!

They are about organopalladium anticancer agents with a detailed biological/computational analysis on novel Pd-aryl complexes (read here), the synthesis, anticancer and catalytic activity of di-gold(I)-thiolato and -alkynyl complexes bearing di-NHC ligands (read here) and a DFT analysis concerning the reaction between biologically-active Pd complexes and chalcogenolates (read here).

Here you can find all of them and other papers about this topic!

New unsaturated 104-electron Pd(0) cluster.

Read the last paper about the synthesis and characterization of a new nanocluster with a cubic Pd8 core stabilized by µ4-capping phosphinidene ligands.

New paper !

Are you interested in how cyclodextrins and MOFs can synergistically act as drug delivery systems for cancer therapy? Here you can find a review on the topic by Thomas Scattolin and co-workers.

Other publications of our group about metal-based anticancer agents can be found in the specific section here. Have a look!

French-Italian Coordination Chemistry Days

Our PhD students Francesco and Giovanni, together with Prof. Andrea Biffis, participated at the French-Italian Coordination Chemistry Days at Insitut de Science et d’Ingénierie Supramoléculaires (ISIS) in Strasbourg (FR). It was an occasion for Italian and French scientists to promote exchange and collaboration in coordination chemistry and beyond.

A New Piece in the Puzzle of Organopalladium Anticancer Agents.

Happy to share our second 2024 paper, published in European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry. In this contribution the anticancer properties of Pd(II)-imidoyl complexes were explored for the first time. Read it here !
