First we reduced catalyst loading and moved to a safer surrogate of acetaldehyde, then we switched to water as a solvent using DoE; we have now been able to run the reaction in water with cheaper catalyst thanks to micelles! Open access on Chemistry at Thieme thieme-connect.com/products/ejour…


Back in 2020 we started a collaboration with #Dipharma to innovate an industrial process for a key intermediate for an API; Francesca Della Penna was the main driver for the success of the project and Valeria Nori finished it off - the patent has today been published as EP4119536A1.



Check out this excellent work by Zhenwei Ni, @MariaMppaz, and Lucas Mello in ACS Catalysis on how to convert ethanol to primary or secondary alcohols, or even to hydrocarbons. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…



The time has come and today Giuliana Giorgianni defended her PhD Università degli Studi dell'Aquila ; we can officially call her Dr! Thanks to BonifaziLAB and #FIS for hosting her. It was great having you with us, we already miss you!


Our recent work on 'Tuning Ethanol Upgrading toward Primary or Secondary Alcohols by Homogeneous Catalysis' is highlighted in Organic Process Research & Development.

Just been awarded a joint PhD position with Giulio Ragazzon , by the Franco-Italian University! We are now looking for candidates interested on supramolecular photoactive organocatalysts operating in an aqueous environment! Please send email with CV and cover letter. RT appreciated

A project started by Giuliana Giorgianni and artfully led by Alessandro Brusa and #DeboraIapadre - a surrogate of acetaldehyde to efficiently promote the original Enders cascade, now out on BJOC Beilstein-Institut @beilstein-institut.bsky.social - Maria Edith Casacchia Alessio Carioscia Fabio Pesciaioli beilstein-journals.org/bjoc/articles/…


Today biking towards #DTU 😊🇩🇰 Thrilled and excited to share that today I am embarking in a new journey as Postdoc! I will be working in Prof. Martin Nielsen’s group and look for new ways to valorise carbon dioxide, while keeping my own emissions low 🚲


Finally an easy access to 7OH-CBD! #OA on RSC Advances - interesting collaboration with Indena, topped up with an Royal Society of Chemistry Research Enablement Grant for Emanuele Cocco to visit Thomas Group. Great work by Emanuele, #Debora and Alessandro Brusa ! doi.org/10.1039/D3RA08…



Thrilled to share that the work of Sakhitha Koranchalil on transforming biowaste to the useful compound gamma-valerolactone is published in EES Catalysis. Royal Society of Chemistry DTU pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Our European patent application in collaboration with #Dipharma has just been granted, therefore Preparation of a pharmaceutical intermediate EP4119536 A1 will be from now on a B1! Thanks a lot to Valeria Nori #FrancescaDellaPenna, and to #Dipharma for believing in us.

We are organising a School in Catalysis for PhD candidates, postdocs and researchers in L'Aquila 27-31 Jan 25 Università degli Studi dell'Aquila Deadline to apply for fellowship is approaching: 15 September!
