RESEARCH
Our research is directed toward the development of innovative catalytic methodologies for the construction of structurally complex carbon architectures.
Particularly, we focus on the discovery of previously unexplored enantiocontrolled transformations operating through heterolytic, radical, and pericyclic pathways, with the aim of delivering broadly applicable and highly efficient catalytic strategies for the stereoselective construction of carbon–carbon and carbon–oxygen bonds.

Hugo's time in Barcelona is up… 🇩🇪
To celebrate his semester here, we said goodbye the best way we could imagine: with a classic Group Bowling Event 🎳✨
Thanks for all the great moments. We are sure you have a very bright future ahead! 👋💛 #Erasmus #OrgChem #Enolate
Great to see Xavi (@Xavi_275) take part in the VIII Tesimarató de Química! 🔬✨
Science communication is just as essential as scientific discovery — sharing knowledge is how we inspire, connect, and move forward. Proud of this contribution to the community! #SciComm #Químicacat
We're also happy to welcome Marc (left) from Hannover and Hugo (right) from Köln as our Erasmus students for the Fall semester🍂🍂.
Auf geht's, Jungs! 🇩🇪🎓
