XIV Simposio de Investigadores Jvenes (Badajoz, 2017)
BIENVENIDA
En representacin del Comit Organizador, es un autntico honor daros la bienvenida a
todos los participantes en el XIV Simposio de Investigadores Jvenes Real Sociedad
Espaola de Qumica-Sigma Aldrich (Merck), que este ao se celebrar por primera vez en
la ciudad de Badajoz entre el 7 y el 10 de noviembre de 2017.
Actualmente, el Simposio de Investigadores Jvenes es considerado como la reunin
cientfica de jvenes investigadores en el campo de la Qumica ms importante a nivel
nacional, tal y como atestiguan las trece ediciones anteriores celebradas anualmente desde el
ao 2004 con un crecimiento continuo no slo en cuanto al nmero de asistentes, sino tambin
a la calidad cientfica de los trabajos presentados. La organizacin del evento es asumida por
el Grupo Especializado de Jvenes Investigadores Qumicos (JIQ) de la Real Sociedad
Espaola de Qumica (RSEQ) y, durante su celebracin, se realiza la entrega de los premios
anuales a Jvenes Investigadores de la RSEQ-Sigma Aldrich y de SusChem-JIQ. Estos
prestigiosos galardones tienen por objeto reconocer las mejores trayectorias cientficas de
investigadores noveles y las mejores publicaciones pre- y posdoctorales del ao 2016 en
cualquier rea de la Qumica, respectivamente. Adems, como novedad, en la edicin de este
ao tambin se entregar el premio a Jvenes Investigadores RSEQ-Reaxys, dirigido a
aquellos investigadores que hayan empleado esta base de datos cientfica en la elaboracin de
sus trabajos.
El Simposio abarca todas las ramas de la Qumica moderna (Qumica Orgnica,
Qumica Inorgnica, Qumica Fsica, Qumica Analtica, Bioqumica, Qumica Mdica e
Ingeniera Qumica), englobando desde la investigacin bsica hasta las ms recientes y
novedosas aplicaciones. Por tanto, este evento constituye una oportunidad enriquecedora y
nica para los jvenes investigadores qumicos procedentes de todos los campos anteriores.
Las contribuciones cientficas se distribuirn en conferencias plenarias reservadas a los
premiados (RSEQ-Sigma Aldrich, SusChem-JIQ y RSEQ-Reaxys), comunicaciones hot topic,
comunicaciones orales, comunicaciones flash y sesiones de pster. Por otra parte, el
tradicional Taller de Empresas, una de las principales y ms reconocibles seas de identidad
del Simposio, versar en esta edicin sobre posibles salidas profesionales para los
investigadores qumicos alternativas a la trayectoria acadmica tradicional. As, se tratarn
temas como la transferencia de resultados de investigacin, la solicitud y gestin de patentes y
otras formas de proteccin de la I+D, el emprendimiento en el sector qumico o la creacin de
empresas spin off. Todo ello de una forma dinmica a travs de una mesa redonda que contar
con la participacin de expertos del Servicio de Gestin y Transferencia de Resultados de la
Investigacin de la Universidad de Extremadura, de la Junta de Extremadura y con
emprendedores responsables de la creacin de varias empresas spin off dentro del sector
qumico, los cuales nos trasladarn sus experiencias. Desde estas lneas, nos gustara
agradecer a todos los ponentes su disponibilidad y predisposicin para participar en esta
actividad.

XIV Simposio de Investigadores Jvenes (Badajoz, 2017)
Este Comit Organizador se muestra enormemente satisfecho con el gran inters y
acogida que ha despertado la presente edicin del Simposio entre los jvenes investigadores
qumicos, y que se ha traducido en un elevado nmero de solicitudes de participacin. En este
sentido, hemos realizado todos los esfuerzos posibles por satisfacer esta demanda,
alcanzndose una cifra de inscritos cercana a los 150 y cubrindose de este modo la totalidad
de las solicitudes.
La ciudad de Badajoz, y con ella la Comunidad Autnoma de Extremadura, han sido
seleccionadas para acoger por primera vez una edicin de este evento cientfico de primer
nivel. Las sesiones cientficas se desarrollarn en el Saln de Grados de la Facultad de
Ciencias (edificio Juan Remn Camacho) y en el Saln de Actos del Edificio Contenedor de los
Institutos de Investigacin, ambos ubicados en el Campus de la Universidad de Extremadura
en Badajoz y a escasos metros uno del otro. Las comidas se realizarn en el saln-comedor de
la Facultad de Ciencias Econmicas y Empresariales, situado tambin en el mismo Campus de
Badajoz, mientras que la cena de gala se celebrar en el NH Gran Hotel Casino Extremadura.
Por su parte, para el alojamiento se han dispuesto dos establecimientos hoteleros, el Aparthotel
Ascarza Badajoz y el Hotel Mercure Ro Badajoz, localizados entre 5 y 10 minutos a pie del
lugar de desarrollo de las sesiones cientficas.
Y, por supuesto, como no todo iba a ser Qumica, tambin habr tiempo para el ocio y
la diversin a travs del programa social que se ha preparado. Realizaremos una visita guiada
nocturna por los principales monumentos histricos y lugares de inters de Badajoz. Pasear
por esta ciudad es sumergirse de lleno en su apasionante historia, fuertemente marcada por su
origen rabe y su carcter de plaza fronteriza en las sucesivas guerras y disputas con Portugal.
Monumentos como la Alcazaba, la de mayor extensin en toda Europa, con su imponente
Torre de Espantaperros y sus jardines de La Galera, constituyen tesoros que dan buena cuenta
de la dominacin musulmana de Batalyaws, que alcanz su mximo esplendor bajo la dinasta
aftas y el posterior imperio almohade. Otros monumentos de marcada influencia rabe son las
Casas Mudjares, primer ayuntamiento de la ciudad, y la Plaza Alta. Por su parte, el carcter
fronterizo de la ciudad ha pervivido hasta nuestros das en la extensa muralla abaluartada, con
sus mltiples puertas (de Palmas, del Pilar, de la Trinidad, etc.), el puente de Palmas y otros
elementos defensivos como el Fuerte de San Cristbal. Adems de esta visita obligada,
tambin podremos disfrutar de una cata de cervezas artesanales y del ambiente nocturno de
Badajoz.
Asimismo, desde el Comit Organizador deseamos mostrar nuestro ms sincero y
profundo agradecimiento a todas y cada una de las instituciones, tanto pblicas como privadas,
por el inters mostrado y el apoyo econmico y logstico ofrecido, sin el cual la organizacin y
celebracin de este evento cientfico hubiese sido simplemente imposible.
Como en ediciones anteriores, esperamos que el Simposio logre holgadamente sus
objetivos de que los jvenes investigadores qumicos se interrelacionen entre s, fomentando
de este modo la discusin, elemento esencial para el avance de la Ciencia y de la Qumica en

Jess Campos studied Chemistry at University of Sevilla
receiving the First National Award in 2007. He moved to the
University of Manchester to work under the guidance of Prof.
John D. Sutherland (MPhil, 2008). Back to Spain he joined the
group of Prof. Ernesto Carmona to work on fundamental
organometallic chemistry and receiving two PhD Extraordinary
Awards and an International PhD Distinction (2012) after
spending a visiting stay with Prof. Maurice Brookhart
(University of North Carolina, USA, 2010).
He returned to the USA as a postdoctoral researcher joining the prestigious group of Prof.
Robert H. Crabtree at Yale University to work in green catalysis and energy-related
transformations (2013-2014). He was awarded with a Talentia Postdoc Fellowship for a second
postdoctoral period in the laboratories of Prof. Simon Aldridge at University of Oxford to focus
on bond activation and catalysis with main group systems (2014-2016).
In 2016 he moved back to the University of Sevilla after securing a Marie Curie IF fellowship
and one year later he was awarded with a permanent position as Research Scientist of the
Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) to develop his independent career at the Institute of
Chemical Research (IIQ) at Sevilla. More recently, he was granted an ERC Starting Grant
project from the European Research Council to develop new cooperative catalysts from a
multidisciplinary approach.
Dr. Campos is author of more than 45 scientific articles in international top journals and his
research has been recognized with several research prizes such as a project for Young
Researchers from the BBVA Foundation, Javier Benjumea Puigcerver Research Prize (shared
with Prof. Carmona) or the Young Researchers Real Maestranza de Caballera de Sevilla
Award. His interests include all aspects of inorganic and organometallic chemistry, with
particular emphasis on cooperative chemistry and the development of new catalytic reactions.

Los ligandos fosfina se encuentran en una posicin privilegiada dentro de la qumica
organometlica y la catlisis homognea, en gran medida debido a la posibilidad de modular de
manera sencilla sus propiedades estricas y electrnicas. En particular, el uso de fosfinas
voluminosas ha sido crucial en el desarrollo de nuevos procesos catalticos [1] y ha permitido
caracterizar numerosos complejos organometlicos altamente reactivos por estabilizacin
cintica [2]. Las fosfinas de biarilo (PR2Ar, Ar = bifenilo) desarrolladas por Buchwald son un
ejemplo paradigmtico [3], sin embargo, apenas existe informacin sobre sus anlogas de
terfenilo (2,6-C6H3-Ar2), a pesar de la excepcional capacidad estabilizadora de este fragmento
[4]. Es por ello que en los ltimos aos decidimos preparar una amplia familia de estos ligandos
y sus correspondientes complejos con metales preciosos, particularmente oro, platino, iridio y
rodio [5a]. Los estudios de reactividad de estas especies nos han permitido aislar estructuras
sin precedentes [5b] e identificar modos de reaccin altamente inusuales. Asimismo,
combinando el carcter cido de estos complejos voluminosos de oro con el comportamiento
bsico de especies de platino (0) hemos desarrollado el primer par de Lewis frustrado basado
nicamente en metales de transicin [5c].

Tremendous progress over the past decades has been made in the synthesis of metallic
nanocrystals that emerged a library of particles with precisely controlled sizes, shapes, and
surface chemistry [1,2]. Today, the particles serve as building blocks for hierarchical self-
assembly and as active species in a variety of catalytic transformations. In the first part of the
talk, we will exploit hydrophobic forces to self-organize plasmonic nanoparticles into discrete
clusters of different sizes with well-controlled interparticle distances [3,4]. The second part of the
talk will be devoted to all-metal photochemistry, a field of research dealing with the use of
plasmonic nanoparticles in light-assisted chemical transformations [5]. We will define
geometrical and structural constraints in design of efficient photocatalyst to regenerate cofactor
molecules.

Las zeolitas son xidos cristalinos microporosos con poros y cavidades bien definidos de
dimensiones moleculares (~3-12 ), y que presentan amplia aplicacin en adsorcin de gases,
intercambio catinico o catlisis, entre otras aplicaciones [1]. El uso de agentes directores de
estructura orgnicos (ADEO) e inorgnicos (ADEI) durante su sntesis, permite controlar el
tamao de sus poros y cavidades, su composicin qumica y/o su tamao de cristal, abriendo
nuevas oportunidades para su aplicacin como catalizadores en procesos qumicos de gran
inters industrial.
En este sentido, se presentarn distintas estrategias de sntesis desarrolladas recientemente
con el objetivo mltiple de mejorar la eficiencia de su preparacin (costes o rendimientos de
sntesis), su actividad cataltica, o su resistencia frente a procesos de desactivacin. Primero,
se presentar el uso combinado de complejos organometllicos con otras molculas orgnicas
como ADEOs cooperativos, permitiendo la obtencin de zeolitas de poro pequeo conteniendo
metales aislados como catalizadores activos y altamente estables para la reduccin cataltica
selectiva de NOx (ver Figura 1a) [2]. En segundo lugar, se mostrar la sntesis de distintas
zeolitas nanocristalinas con tamaos de partcula menores de 50 nm utilizando ADEOs de
naturaleza no-surfactante y/o fuentes de silicio pre-cristalizadas como ADEI, as como su
aplicacin como catalizadores eficientes para los procesos metanol-a-olefinas (MTO) u
oligomerizacin de olefinas a combustibles lquidos (ver Figura 1b) [3]. Finalmente, se mostrar
el uso novedoso de ADEOs que mimetizan los estados de transicin de reacciones
preestablecidas, con el fin de generar cavidades especficas que alberguen los estados de
transicin, mejorando la actividad cataltica y la selectividad hacia los productos deseados (ver
Figura 1c) [4].

Anna Company studied Chemistry at the University of Girona
(Spain, 2000 - 2004) and she obtained her PhD in Chemistry in
December 2008 at the same university under the supervision of
Dr. Miquel Costas. The main focus of her PhD thesis was the
activation of O2 at copper and iron-based bioinspired
complexes. During her doctoral studies, she performed two
short research stays in highly recognized research groups. In
2006, she spent 3 months in the University of Minnesota
(Minneapolis, USA) under the supervision of Prof. Dr.
Lawrence Que Jr. and in 2007 she visited the laboratories of
Prof. Dr. Karl Wieghardt in the Max Planck Institut fr Bioanorganische Chemie (Mlheim an der
Ruhr, Germany).
In April 2009 she joined the group of Prof. Dr. Driess at the Technische Universitt Berlin
(Germany) as a postdoctoral researcher. Her postdoctoral position was funded by the European
Commission by a 2-year Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship. Her work was focused on the
study of the mechanisms of O2 activation at nickel centers and the study of the reactivity of the
resulting nickel-dioxygen adducts. Noteworthy, during this period, she won the 2010 Dalton
Young Researchers Award, awarded by the Royal Society of Chemistry to a young European
inorganic chemist.
After the two-year stay in Berlin, in April 2011 she returned to the University of Girona, firstly as
a postdoctoral associate and she was appointed as a Ramn y Cajal researcher (2012-2016).
During this period, she started her independent research line thanks to the funding from a
Career Integration Grant from the European Commission. Since then, she has directed two PhD
theses (Dr. J. Serrano-Plana, July 2016 and Dr. T. Corona, February 2017) and 7 master
theses. Together with Dr. X. Ribas she has been granted with two research projects from the
Spanish Ministry of Science in 2013 and 2016. Since January 2017 Anna is appointed as
Research Director.
Her background on activation of small molecules and oxidation chemistry with first-row transition
metals acquired during her PhD and postdoctoral experiences sets the basis for the research
topics she is currently working on. She works on the activation of small molecules such as N2O
or O2 and on the detection and characterization of high valent metal-oxygen and metal-nitrogen
species with relevance in catalysis.
Annas work has been published in 52 articles in peer reviewed journals which have received
over 1400 citations and her h-index is 21. Moreover, she has published 5 book chapters and 5
Spanish patents. She has delivered 13 lectures at international conferences (5 of them invited)
and at universities or research centers (9 contributions). Anna received the 2015 Clara
Immerwahr Award, a prize given annually by the Cluster of Excellence UniCat in Germany, and
the Premio RSEQ Lilly Joven Investigador 2016, awarded every year to a young researcher by
the Spanish Royal Society of Chemistry and the chemical company Eli Lilly.

The study of high-valent nickel complexes has attracted the attention of the bioinorganic
chemistry community to provide models of nickel-containing enzymes that catalyze redox
processes. Moreover, high-valent nickel-oxygen species have been frequently postulated as
key reaction intermediates in the catalytic cycle of oxidation reactions. However, only a handful
of such species have been properly trapped and characterized. Only very recently
spectroscopic description and reactivity investigations on well-defined nickel(III)-oxygen species
have been reported [1-3].
Herein, we describe the preparation of two highly reactive high-valent nickel-oxygen
intermediates nickel-oxyl (2) and nickel-OCl (3) that have been spectroscopically trapped by
low-temperature reaction of 1 with mCPBA (meta-chloroperbenzoic acid) and NaOCl
respectively (see Figure 1) [4,5]. Both compounds could be characterized by means of several
spectroscopic (UV-vis, EPR, rRaman, XAS, ESI-MS) and computational methods. Moreover,
these species were able to oxidize organic substrates including C-H bonds, C-C double bonds
and sulfides.
Compounds 2 and 3 are more reactive towards organic substrates than the previously reported
well-defined Ni-oxygen species. Most probably, the use of a dianionic ligand structure promotes
the formation of these well-defined high-valent nickel-oxygen species that are otherwise highly
elusive.
Results disclosed here demonstrate the viability of high-valent nickel-oxygen species in
oxidation reactions and their potential use as catalysts in such processes. Further works in this
direction are needed to get deeper insight into this chemistry, which until now has been poorly
developed compared to other transition metals such as manganese, iron or copper.

Research in modern medicinal chemistry deeply relies on the discovery of new synthetic methods and applications to access bioisosteres [1] as a vital strategy to overcome difficulties related to design and development of drug candidates [2]. Among the most useful bioisosteres, strained ring systems have been traditionally considered as elusive motifs due to their sparse presence in nature and the challenges that represents their synthesis [3].
In this context, it was envisioned that the ring-strain release could be used as the driving force to achieve unprecedented synthetic transformations leading to the synthesis of the aforementioned valuable bioisosteres.
The implementation of this concept motivated the discovery of a new methodology which implied the use of small strained bicyclic rings, such as [1.1.1]propellane, 1-azabicyclo[1.1.0]butane and 1-(arylsulfonyl)bicyclo[1.1.0]butane (Scheme 1). These substrates presented noteworthy propensity to experience reactions with amine nucleophiles, in a transformation that resembles hydroamination reaction and led to the formation of products of great interest for pharmaceutical industry, since the reaction is a powerful synthetic tool for any-stage funtionalization of amine compounds [4], along with other heteronucleophilic species [5].
Scheme 1
The reaction represents a novel strategy for the late functionalization of pharmaceutically interesting compounds, giving access to previously evasive bioisosteric forms, while retrieving known but underexploited reactivity of polycyclic strained molecules.

TUNING THE ACTIVITY OF PT ALLOY ELECTROCATALYSTS BY MEANS
OF THE LANTHANIDE CONTRACTION

Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells are expected to play a key role in a future society
based on sustainable energy. However, the high loadings of Pt required to compensate for the
slow kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) constitute a major obstacle for a
commercially competitive reality. In order to improve the reaction kinetics and reduce the Pt
loading at the fuel cell cathode, where the ORR takes place, we need to develop more efficient
electrocatalysts. Researchers have intensively studied alloys of Pt with late transition metals for
the ORR. However, these alloys typically degrade by dealloying under fuel cell conditions, due
to dealloying. In contrast, alloys of Pt and lanthanides present exceptionally negative alloying
energy, which should increase their resistance to degradation.
We discovered that some platinum-lanthanide alloys such as platinum-gadolinium are very
active and stable ORR electrocatalysts [1,2]. The active phase consists of a compressed Pt
overlayer formed by acid leaching [1-3].
In order to study the trends in ORR
activity for different levels of
compression, we systematically studied
eight novel Pt-lanthanide and Pt-alkaline
earth polycrystalline electrodes, Pt5M,
where M is lanthanum, cerium,
samarium, gadolinium, terbium,
dysprosium, thulium, or calcium [1].
These materials are amongst the most
active Pt-based catalysts ever reported,
presenting up to a 3 to 6-fold increase in
ORR activity, relative to Pt. Notably, the
experimental ORR activity versus the
lattice parameter from X-ray diffraction
follows a volcano relation (Fig. 1). We
have used the lanthanide contraction to
control strain effects and tailor the
activity, stability and reactivity of Pt alloys
[1].

First isolated in 2004, [1] graphene has sparked a great scientific interest thanks to its peculiar mechanical and electronic properties, which promise to upgrade many technologies, from microelectronics to biosensing and nano-medicine [2]. These potential applications require stable graphene dispersions with a good balance between yield and ease of manipulation, where graphene electronic properties are retained. Exfoliation of graphite via non-covalent intercalation of small aromatic molecules [3] represents a promising strategy to obtain high quality graphene while avoiding chemical modifications that can compromise its electronic features.
Among the many molecules that have been proposed as exfoliating agents, only a few successfully exfoliate and stabilize graphene in aqueous media: one example is 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazine, also known as melamine [3]. In order to explain the role of melamine on stable graphene aqueous dispersions, we have studied the nature of water-melamine-graphene interactions with state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We analysed different melamine, water and melamine/water coverages and symmetries on graphene within a super-cell slab periodic approach. From our results, we propose a microsolvation model where the subtle interplay between non-covalent interactions, namely dispersion and hydrogen-bonding, provides the necessary thermodynamic driving force to stabilize the graphene-water system with small amounts of melamine [4]. The results discussed in this contribution provide useful insights for the rational design of new non-toxic molecules that can conveniently adsorb with water on graphene, thus enabling its effective use in aqueous media.

En el ao 2005, Sharpless y col. [1] definieron y aplicaron las condiciones de reactividad on
water a cicloadiciones Diels-Alder, observando un notable aumento de velocidad. La novedad
de esta tcnica de catlisis radicaba en que empleaban un medio de reaccin, el agua, que
tradicionalmente no se asociaba a productos orgnicos, dada la insolubilidad y/o poca
estabilidad de los mismos en ella. Sin embargo, los procesos no ocurran en disolucin, sino en
la interfase entre la fase orgnica y la fase acuosa. Debido a ello, esta interfase debe estar
formndose de manera continua, para que los sitios catalticos activos se renueven y estn
disponibles para las molculas de los reactivos. As, el tipo de agitacin aplicada influye
marcadamente en la eficacia de la catlisis, debiendo ser anrquica y vigorosa. Por ello, no
existe un mtodo de agitacin ideal y nico para aplicar a todas las transformaciones on
water, sino que debe ser determinado empricamente para cada reaccin [2].
Por este motivo, decidimos estudiar, por una parte, la influencia de la agitacin sobre las
reacciones on water entre furano y derivados y diversas maleimidas [3], y entre dichos
furanos y tri-O-acetil-2-nitro-D-glucal [4], un carbohidrato muy poco reactivo (Esquema 1). Los
procesos se llevaron a cabo bajo la agitacin proporcionada por un agitador magntico y un
brazo agitador de vibracin oscilante vertical. Se observ que, para el segundo conjunto de
reacciones, la velocidad y los productos formados dependan del mtodo de agitacin, siendo
posible as dirigir la transformacin hacia la obtencin de unos productos u otros.

Graphene is a two-dimensional, one-atom-thick material, entirely made of carbon atoms,
arranged in a honeycomb lattice. Because of their distinctive mechanical (such as high strength
and flexibility) and electronic (great electrical and thermal conductivities) properties, graphene
and its derivatives are ideal candidates in a variety of applications [1], thus it has just started to
be engineered in electronics, photonics and polymer-based composites. However, a reliable
and scalable graphene production still stands as a bottleneck for its broad use. Fields such as
nanocomposite materials or nanomedicine require larger quantities, and have therefore used
chemical derivatives of graphene (namely its oxide, graphene oxide, GO, and its reduced
counterpart, reduced graphene oxide, rGO) instead, because these derivatives can be
produced in huge amounts practically in any laboratory. While these are very interesting
materials, their properties are markedly different from those of pristine graphene [1]. There
currently exist detailed preparation and functionalization methods for GO and rGO, but much
less is available for non-oxidized graphene.
An accessible way to obtain cost-effective and suitable large amounts of non-oxidized graphene
is the mechanochemical (e.g. by ball milling) exfoliation of graphite [2]. These methods provide
mostly few-layer graphene materials with reasonable sizes, acceptable level of defects and
good structural characteristics to enable their exploitation, for example, in composite or medical
applications. A main constraint related to the graphene development is that, being of strongly
hydrophobic nature, the majority or totality of dispersions (usually required for its handling and
processing towards the desired application) are prepared in poisonous organic solvents, such
as DMF or NMP. In light of the above mentioned, we detail a protocol (fully devised and
optimized in our laboratories [3]) that describes the preparation of exfoliated graphite down to
few-layer graphene (3-4 layers thick and ~ 500 nm diameter in average) in high yield by the use
of ball milling, its storage in the form of light solid and its easy dispersion in aqueous media. All
these set of features are rarely met simultaneously [2,3], and owing to this, we have opened
new venues for the use of graphene. Several example applications will be described, namely
the fabrication of hybrid hydrogels that take advantage of our graphenes aqueous dispersibility,
with potential applications in electromechanical sensing [4], stretch-triggered drug delivery [4]
and as biocompatible scaffolds for neuronal growth [5].

En los ltimos aos han sido muchos los cientficos que han centrado sus estudios en la
bsqueda de nuevos catalizadores que se aproximen a la actividad presente en las enzimas
naturales. Tales materiales como las zeolitas [1], ciclodextrinas y los MOFs [2] (Metal-organic
frameworks) han sido diseados para imitar la actividad y selectividad presente en ellas y
adems con la idea de que puedan ser reusados y reutilizados. Los MOFs son materiales
basados en iones o clsteres metlicos conectados por ligandos orgnicos y formando redes
2D y 3D. Este tipo de materiales pueden ser modificados a nivel de ligando y de nodo metlico
lo que permite controlar el tamao de los canales y por lo tanto modificar la selectividad para su
aplicacin en distintos procesos qumicos de inters industrial.
Encaminados hacia esta idea, en nuestro grupo se ha diseado un nuevo material hbrido
metal-orgnico que hemos denominado Al-ITQ-HB [3], que consiste en nodos octadricos de
AlO6 unidos mediante ligandos orgnicos del tipo cido 4-heptilbenzico. La cadena
hidrocarbonada presente en este ligando favorece la formacin de fases laminares y
mesoscpicas, dando lugar a cavidades hidrofbicas que juegan un rol muy importante en la
catlisis. As pues, se ha demostrado la aceleracin en reacciones como la condensacin de
Koevenagel, la sntesis de spirooxindoles y en organometlicas asimtricas de tipo Michael [3].
Como parte de nuestro propsito de continuar descubriendo procesos sostenibles para la
obtencin de molculas de inters en qumica fina, hemos estudiado la actividad de nuestro
catalizador en la sntesis quimioselectiva de benzimidazoles y en la cianosililacin de
compuestos carbonlicos [4].
La reaccin entre aldehdos y diaminas da lugar a una mezcla compleja de productos. El ms
interesante de todos ellos es el benzimidazol ya que se utiliza de manera abundante en la
industria farmacutica. Es necesario pues el uso de un catalizador que permita obtener de
manera selectiva dicho compuesto. Con tan solo un 6 mol% de Al-ITQ-HB, se puede obtener
un 94 % del producto deseado en condiciones suaves de reaccin.
En la reaccin de cianosililacin se ha utilizado la acetofenona como sustrato modelo. La
cianohidrina correspondiente se forma tan slo con un 0,5 mol% de carga de catalizador.
Adems, el material se puede reutilizar de forma sucesiva al menos 8 veces sin prdidas
significativas en cuanto a actividad se refiere.

Nanomedicine has emerged in the last years as an interdisciplinary area with the use of
nanostructures for the transport and release of different molecules. The need for these
nanocarriers arises from the increasing number of therapeutic and diagnostic agents whose
efficacy is affected by nonspecific cell and tissue biodistribution, poor solubility or rapid
metabolization and excretion. Miniaturization to nanoscale provides materials with a large
surface area for bioconjugation, long circulation time in blood, and tunable size with the
possibility of being actively or passively targeted to the desired site of action [1].
Among promising nanocarriers, nanogels have attracted much attention because, as hydrogels,
they show high water content and biocompatibility. Other advantages are their simple
preparation, high loading capacity, stability and responsiveness to environmental factors (such
as ionic strength, pH and temperature). They have been reported to deliver their payload inside
cells and to increase drug delivery across biological barriers [2].
Molecular gels, formed by the non-covalent association of low molecular weight molecules,
have been extensively studied and present lots of potential applications (controlled release,
tissue engineering, catalysis or optoelectronics) [3]. Although only polymeric nanogels have
been studied so far, molecular gels characteristics make them appealing: they present a fully
reversible and stimuli-regulated assembly and an easier biodegradation due to their small-
molecule structure.
We present here the preparation and characterization of a new type of nanoparticles (ca. 100
nm) formed by self-assembled molecular gels. The approach used is the ultrasound-promoted
nanogel formation, a fast and reproducible process [4]. The loading, stability and controlled
release of different photoactive molecules has been studied, including in vitro experiments.

The field of homogenous gold catalysis has exponentially grown in the last decade [1]. In this
area of research, most catalytic reports employ Au complexes in oxidation state +1. In contrast,
the catalytic activity of gold(III) species has been much less developed [2]. The main reason for
this is mainly the intrinsic tendency of Au(III) complexes to reduce to Au(I) or Au(0) in the
reaction media. In addition, the Au(III) species that have proven to be stable to be isolated are
usually too stable to be used in catalytic reactions [2]. Recently, the field of gold redox catalysis,
where both Au(I) and Au(III) species are involved, has allowed for the development of
fascinating chemistry [3]. In this context, much interest has arisen around the synthesis of new
Au(III) species with catalytic potential, and the study of the elementary steps of the gold redox
catalytic cycle.
Due to the relevance of N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands in gold catalysis, a family of
Au(I)-bis(NHC) complexes has been synthesised and their oxidation chemistry towards
hypervalent iodine oxidants, which are common oxidants in gold redox catalysis, has been
explored. This study revealed a ligand influence on the formation of Au(III) species and has
allowed for the design of new Au(III) complexes [4].

Linear and ribbon-like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as acenes and graphene nanoribbons have recently attracted large interest from the scientists, as they can be considered as graphene cut outs designed ad libitum. By careful and wise control of their synthesis, the major drawbacks of the graphene, such as zero band-gap or neglible solubility, can be overcome while retaining the one-atom thickness of graphene with the structure-dependent metallicity of carbon nanotubes.
In general, the nanoribbons can be obtained by following either a top-down or bottom-up approach. Although, the former has been widely used by cutting graphene or unzipping carbon nanotubes to prepare NRs, the NRs do not show atomic precision over any structural variable. Bottom-up can provide atomically-precise control over the edges of the NRs, but do not provide control over the length. Solution polymerisation methods provide control over the edge and width, but no control over the length.
The properties of NRs are highly dependent on the width, length and edge structure, and therefore, a precise atomic control over these three structural variables is necessary for establishing their fundamental properties and exploring their potential applications. NRs have unique electronic, optical and mechanical properties and are considered promising candidates to develop new technologies for electronics, photonics, and energy conversion, among others.
Here, we present a series of the largest atomically precise NRs which are based on pyrene-fused pyrazaacenes [1]. Due to the introduction of pyrene units into the backbone, this type of nitrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons show very high stability in air. The nanoribbons were easily characterised due to the large solubility in common organic solvents and the photoconductivity measured.

El objetivo de esta investigacin ha sido desarrollar emulsiones aceite-en-agua ecolgicas mediante microfluidizacin, estudiando principalmente la influencia de la presin de homogenizacin y el tipo de cmara utilizada. El disolvente utilizado como fase dispersa ha
sido -pineno, un terpeno primario que se encuentra en la naturaleza como componente de aceites esenciales como el de romero y puede obtenerse adems a partir de varias especies de rboles y arbustos, en especial del pino [1]. Se estudiaron previamente las propiedades
superficiales (aire/agua) e interfaciales (-pineno/agua) del agente emulsionante utilizado, un tensioactivo no inico comercial derivado del aceite de coco (Levenol F-200) y que est considerado como compuesto ecolgico, mediante tensiometra de gota pendiente. Las emulsiones se han preparado con una concentracin de fase oleosa del 30% p/p y de agente emulsionante del 3% p/p mediante microfludica, haciendo uso de presiones comprendidas en el intervalo 5000-25000 psi y dos configuraciones distintas de cmaras de interaccin (Y o Y+Z). Las tcnicas utilizadas para caracterizar las emulsiones han sido: la reologa, la difrac-cin lser, multiple light scattering, microscopa ptica y Cryo-SEM. Los resultados de la caracterizacin interfacial han puesto de manifiesto las buenas propiedades superficiales de
este tensioactivo en ambas interfases. En el caso de la interfase -pineno/agua, el tensioactivo reduce considerable y rpidamente la tensin interfacial. Se ha demostrado que el uso del tensioactivo Levenol F-200 produce emulsiones con tamao submicrnico independientemente de la presin y configuracin de cmara de interaccin utilizada. La mayor estabilidad fsica se obtuvo para las emulsiones procesadas con la configuracin Y+Z a 25000 psi debido a sus menores tamaos de gota, lo que ayuda a prevenir fenmenos de desestabilizacin como el cremado o la coalescencia. En general, el uso de las dos cmaras y un incremento de la presin ha conllevado la reduccin de los dimetros medios de gota y de la polidispersidad. La monitorizacin de la estabilidad fsica por multiple light scattering ha demostrado que el mecanismo de desestabilizacin dominante de todas las emulsiones es el cremado, aunque no se haya producido separacin de fases observable a la vista. Esto se ha atribuido a que, a pesar de que el tamao de gota es muy pequeo, la movilidad de las gotas estaba favorecida por la baja viscosidad de las emulsiones. Por ello, la emulsin con menor valor del Turbiscan Stability Index [2] fue formulada nuevamente utilizando como estabilizante fsico una arcilla comercial (Aerosil 200), aumentando la viscosidad y disminuyendo la desestabilizacin por cremado. De esta forma, se han conseguido emulsiones de alta estabilidad fsica, tamao de gota submicrnico y con propiedades reolgicas mejoradas y modulables.

Carbohydrates represent one of the largest groups of key biomolecules since they are involved in many essential biological processes [1]. For a better understanding of their roles in biological systems, as well as for the development of carbohydrate-based therapeutics and vaccines [2], it is key to access chemically defined oligosaccharides. Thus, efforts have been devoted to the development of efficient methods that allow their controlled synthesis [3].
Here, we present a method for the selective activation of thioglycosides that uses the N+-
thiophilic reagent O-mesitylenesulfonylhydroxylamine (MSH) as a promoter. The reaction proceeds via anomeric mesitylensulfonate intermediates, which could be isolated and fully characterized by placing a fluorine atom at the C-2 position. In the presence of a soft Lewis acid, glycosylation reaction proceeds at ambient temperature with good yields. We further demonstrate that it is possible to orthogonally activate S-ethyl in the presence of S-phenyl donors enabling the design of sequential glycosylation strategies.

Las prcticas agronmicas son una excelente herramienta para dar respuestas a las demandas de calidad de los consumidores. Entre ellas, la aplicacin de riego en el viedo afecta a la composicin fenlica de las uvas y su estudio es necesario para mejorar la acumulacin de fenoles y obtener un adecuado compromiso entre rendimiento y calidad. La acumulacin de estas sustancias en las uvas supone un valor aadido en el producto ya que las mismas previenen el desarrollo de ciertas enfermedades [1]. Sin embargo, el anlisis individual de los compuestos fenlicos requiere tcnicas caras como la cromatografa de lquidos en la que se emplean largos tiempos de elucin y requiere un personal con formacin en esas tcnicas. Por lo tanto, el desarrollo de mtodos de determinacin de compuestos fenlicos rpidos, simples, baratos y con mnimo tratamiento de muestras es necesario para que el sector enolgico pueda disponer de ellos. A partir de la fluorescencia nativa de los alimentos en combinacin con algoritmos quimiomtricos se puede obtener informacin que permita la caracterizacin de los mismos. Aplicando esta metodologa, en el caso de los vinos, se ha llevado a cabo el anlisis de compuestos fenlicos [2].
En este trabajo se van a estudiar mediante fluorescencia front-face, extractos de uva sometidos a diferentes regmenes hdricos y la informacin obtenida se analizar con herramientas quimiomtricas como Parallel Factor Analisys (PARAFAC) y U-PLS con el objetivo de diferenciar entre los distintos regmenes hdricos. Para ello se registraron matrices de excitacin-emisin, y la representacin de los valores de los scores de PARAFAC de manera tridimensional, nos permiti diferenciar entre los diferentes tipos de uvas. Por otra parte, se realiz una calibracin en ter para la cuantificacin de catequina, epicatequina y resveratrol. Se correlacionaron los scores del primer componente de PARAFAC con las concentraciones de resveratrol (r
2=0.897) y los del tercero con la suma de concentraciones de catequina y
epicatequina (r2=0.940). Finalmente, se analizaron las muestras de uva por fluorescencia y por
cromatografa de lquidos, encontrndose buena concordancia entre los resultados obtenidos por ambos mtodos. La concentracin de resveratrol por U-PLS fue 2.640.71 mg/kg para muestras de secano y 4.400.21 mg/kg para muestras de regado. En el caso de la suma de catequina y epicatequina, las mejores predicciones se obtuvieron por PARAFAC y fueron 20.621.23 mg/kg para uvas de secano y 32.550.78 mg/kg.

Transition-metal catalysed cross-coupling reactions are still dominated by palladium chemistry.
For instance, we have, recently, reported an efficient catalytic system based on PdNPs/DNA
applicable to the copper- and ligand-free Sonogashira-Hagihara reaction [1]. The catalyst is
used with low Pd loading under mild conditions in MeOH without air exclusion. In addition, it can
be reused in five cycles and shows better performance than an array of commercial Pd
catalysts.
Within the recent past, copper has gained ground against palladium by virtue of its cheaper
price and equivalent function in certain reactions [2]. Four catalysts consisting of copper
nanoparticles on zeolite [3a], titania [3b], montmorillonite and activated carbon [3c] have been
tested in three palladium- and ligand-free cross-coupling reactions to form carboncarbon [4],
carbonsulfur [5] and carbonnitrogen [6] bonds [7].
Among these catalysts, CuNPs/zeolite has been found to be the best one in the Sonogashira
reaction of aryl iodides and aryl acetylenes, as well as in the coupling of aryl halides with aryl
and alkyl thiols, being reusable in both cases. In the case of the arylation of nitrogen-containing
heterocycles (imidazole, pyrazole, benzimidazole and indole), it has been better accomplished
with CuNPs/titania, albeit CuNPs/activated carbon showed better recycling properties.
The catalytic activity of the nanostructured catalysts has been compared with that of twelve
commercial copper catalysts, with the former outperforming the latter in the three types of
reactions studied. Therefore, taking into account that our catalysts are easily prepared, the
protocols introduced in this report are an attractive alternative to the utilisation of the more
expensive palladium catalysts and the commercial (non-reusable) copper catalysts.

Recientemente se ha demostrado que el monxido de carbono (CO) es una importante
molcula bioseal que puede ejercer un efecto teraputico beneficioso/homeosttico en el
organismo y, en concreto, en el tratamiento de dolencias de tipo inflamatorio y/o cardiovascular,
as como en la preservacin de rganos para trasplantes [1]. Aunque la simple inhalacin de
mezclas aire/CO sera la va de administracin ms sencilla para este gas, desgraciadamente
esta ruta de administracin carece de especificidad y, por lo tanto, requerira que el paciente
inhalase grandes dosis del mismo.
En este contexto, los materiales liberadores de CO (CORMAs) [2] surgen como una va de
administracin ms segura y especfica. Los CORMAs se definen como sistemas slidos
avanzados capaces de almacenar CO y suministrarlo posteriormente, de forma controlada en
el tiempo, mediante la aplicacin de un estmulo apropiado (cambio de pH, luz, presencia de
una determinada enzima, etc). Una de las estrategias ms verstiles para disear nuevos
CORMAs consiste en la combinacin de un carbonilo metlico, que acta como prodroga de
CO, y una plataforma/vehculo biocompatible. En este sentido, las redes metal-orgnicas
(MOFs) ofrecen la posibilidad de albergar en sus poros grandes cantidades del profrmaco de
CO, evitando su prematura degradacin en el medio fisiolgico, as como de retener en sus
cavidades los fragmentos de decarbonilacin metlicos potencialmente txicos.
Teniendo en cuenta estos antecedentes, en esta
comunicacin, se presentan mltiples
estrategias (ej. intercambio inico [3], uso de
MOFs de estructura jerarquizada [4], empleo del
mtodo de modulacin de la coordinacin) para
la preparacin de nuevos CORMAs basados en
diferentes polmeros de coordinacin porosos y
el CORM fotoactivo ALF794
([Mo(CNCMe2CO2H)3(CO)3]). En todos los casos, tanto la cintica de liberacin de CO como el porcentaje de lixiviacin de los fragmentos
metlicos en medio fisiolgico de los materiales hbridos resultantes han sido evaluados.

Substituted cyclopropane rings are present in numerous natural and synthetic products with important biological activities [1]. More than 4000 natural products have been isolated with this structural motif. Densely functionalized cyclopropanes also find applications in drug discovery [2] and since the 60s have been routinely included in SAR studies of new drug candidates, inorder to modulate their activity, metabolism or conformational rigidity. Therefore, astraightforward access to building blocks containing enantiopure cyclopropanes is of greatinterest.
Despite the progress in the synthesis of cyclopropane derivatives, there are only a few strategies of the preparation of optically active cyclopropylboronates reported in the literature [3]. We decided to explore the synthesis of 2,3-substituted borocyclopropanes as a versatile cyclopropane subunit, by a two-step approach of hydroboration and enantioselective cyclopropanation, using alkynes as starting materials (Scheme 1). We also investigated the development of this strategy in a sequential fashion, to avoid the purification of the alkenylboronate. The results on this method for the preparation of this type of highly substituted borocyclopropanes, as well as further functionalization in the cyclopropane ring will be presented.

Cysteine proteases belonging to papain superfamily have been recognized as interesting therapeutic targets for the search of new drugs against infectious tropical diseases such as malaria, Chagas disease, leishmaniasis and Sleeping sickness [1]. We have developed new inhibitors against cysteine proteases as Dipeptidyl epoxyesters, Dipeptidyl enoates and Aminoacyl epoxysulfones. Recently we have reported Dipeptidyl nitroalkenes as a new type of highly potent covalent reversible inhibitors of cysteine proteases (Scheme 1) [2]. These compo
