Morandi Lab

The first paper from the group is out as a 🔥hot paper in @angew_chem: Anthracene Bisurea as a Supramolecular Chloride Receptor for Additive-Free, Broad-Scope Gold(I) Catalysis Great work by Riccardo, with X-ray magics from Toby! doi.org/10.1002/anie.2…

Big milestone for our group 🎉 Our first paper as an independent group in MOF multicatalysis is out in Angewandte Chemie! We combine earth abundant MOFs with commercially available organocatalysts to enable mild, green aerobic oxidations. #MOFs #catalysis

Honored to welcome such a stellar group of speakers to #BarluengaConference2025! Thanks to all who make this event exceptional every year

Great to see this published! In short, we introduced causal inference logic to test which of metal electronics, ancillary ligand sterics and metal coordination number (CN) directly affect the rate of reductive elimination at Pd(II) (and presumably other metals...) 1/
