Very Fruitful August

What a wonderful way to end this fruitful August!

Another stellar review from our group is now online and avaible here! This time we have described how metallodrugs can be encapsulated into liposomes with the aim of improving their anticancer properties!

Moreover we have reported in Chemical Science an elegant synthetic route to Au/Pt (or Pd) complexes and their anticancer activity!

And last but not least, we are very happy and grateful that our review with a focus on Antibody Drug Conjugates for Cancer Therapy was selected for the cover of International Journal of Molecular Sciences!

Check all of these articles in this section of our website!

Summer Papers

During the summer break three important works were published!

Firstly, we are happy to share our collaborative work dealing with a novel class of organopalladium compounds for HGSOC therapy now available in ChemRxiv!

If you are interested in how to conjugate metallodrugs or natural compounds to monoclonal antibodies, here you can find our review on the topic, with a focus on Antibody Drug Conjugates for Cancer Therapy.

In the end, in another nice paper online, this time published in JMedChem , we describe the synthesis, in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo anticancer activity of Pd-NHC indenyl complexes and their mode of action on ovarian cancer.

Happy reading!

29th PhotoIUPAC – Symposium on Photochemistry

In Valencia, Chiara, Giulio, Luca and Elisa had the opportunity to show and share the scientific results obtained in the ECL and RCL fields. A wonderful experience enriched by meetings with important people in the field of photochemistry. Until next time!

C3-Day in Bologna

Professor Cristina Tubaro, Professor Andrea Biffis and our PhD students Giovanni and Francesco took part to the 3rd edition of the C3-Day in Bologna last Tuensday. It will be a unique opportunity for established and early-stage scientists in the field of catalysis to share their latest findings across Academia and Industry, in an informal and international atmosphere.

Another nice paper!

Here you can find the synthesis and characterization of Pt(II) and Au(I) complexes bearing N-oxy-heterocyclic carbene ligands.

Look and read other contributes about the organometallic synthesis and characterization in the appropriate section.

Novel Fe(III), Cr(III) and Ni(II) complexes

A new paper about coordination chemistry and catalytic application in CO2 valorization is online!

Read it and look other contributes about this topic!
