Introduction
We are a research group active in the fields of Catalysis and Synthetic Organic Chemistry at the Center for Research in Biological Chemistry and Materials (CIQUS) at the University of Santiago de Compostela.
Our research interests focus on the development of atom-efficient and sustainabled reactions and asymmetric transformations. Concepts such as bimetallic catalysis, enantioselective synthesis and alkane functionalization are currently being explored in our lab.
