This week, for our @ChemistryUoN seminars, we hosted @Melchiorre_P @MelchiorreGroup who gave a brilliant talk about combining photochemistry with organocatalysis, transition metal catalysis and biocatalysis to expand the boundaries of traditional asymmetric catalysis.

Happy to share our latest work, a practical and iterative protocol for carboxylic acid homologation, today online in @J_A_C_S. Well done to @WheatleyEmilie and George for their exceptional work on this.

The one-carbon homologation of carboxylic acids is a valuable route to construct families of homologues, which play fundamental roles in chemistry and biology. However, known procedures are based on...

Had a great time @univaq , so many enthusiastic students, glad to contribute to inspire them with discussions and teaching activities about photochemistry. A big thanks to @CarloneResearch for the organisation and, oh man, the arrosticini were absolutely fabulous.
We kept it quiet but, hey, @SilviResearch was visiting professor with us @univaq for the whole September. It was incredible to have you with us, Mattia. This was us dining with typical arrosticini from L'Aquila to wish farewell to Mattia.
