Capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the most promising strategies for mitigating emissions. For this reason, the Department of Chemistry aims to revolutionize the way it is captured. With the help of...
The MolBioMed research group of the Department of Chemistry, in collaboration with the University of Barcelona, has published a study that demonstrates the direct relationship between the COX-2 dimer and cancer. The computational study shows the different...
The CatSyNanoMat group of the UAB Department of Chemistry has designed a new synthetic, practical and efficient method for the preparation of aryl phosphonates, which are organic compounds...
Head of research at the Australian National Science Agency (CSIRO) AND executive director of the Global Carbon Project (GCP), organisation made up of dozens of international scientists from more than 90 institutions that has been providing detailed information on natural and anthropogenic carbon dioxide sources and sinks...
Crystal engineering plays an essential role in understanding how organic ligands and metal ions are assembled when synthesizing materials with special properties. Researchers from the Department of Chemistry have synthesized four zinc and cadmium compounds with 2-furoic...
Currently, within the polyester sector, PET is still one of the most widely used, even though it is not sustainable. FURENPOL, a new project funded by the MCIN and the European Union and coordinated by the CSIC in...
Coordination polymers are highly interesting compounds with a large variety of structures and multiple applications. Researchers from the Department of Chemistry have managed to characterize and analyze four zinc-based coordination...
Mercury (Hg) is a metal capable of forming various polycations with various geometries. In this work of the Area of Inorganic Chemistry, the synthesis and characterization of Hg2(Pip)2, a Hg (I) compound with aromatic ligands and...
In a European society increasingly concerned about the environment, OXIPRO arises as a project whose objective is to contribute to the...
Functionalized silica nanoparticles are potential adsorbents for the removal of pollutants from wastewater. This review article from the UAB Department of Chemistry contains an overview of different types of silica nanoparticles,...
