Detailed Course Content
- Organic nanostructures
Coupling C-C reactions through organometalic strategies: Gilman, Suzuki, Stille, Hech, ecc. New double bond formation through alkene metathesis (ROMP, CM, RCM, ecc.). Top-down and bottom-up approach for the nanodevice and nanomachines construction. Light-matter interaction. Molecular electronic and photonic: advantages in the use of small organic molecules instead of inorganic clusters. P and n organic semiconductors. Organic electroluminescence in thin film: use of low weight molecules and polymeric systems (OLED). Design of organic materials able to substitute traditional optoelectronic components. Analysis ands comment of recent scientific publication on the course topic.
Design, synthesis and characterization (1H-, 13C-NMR, MS) of organic molecules opportunely functionalized for anchoring on inorganic surfaces, comparison of photo physical properties in solution and in solid phase.
