Bio-inspired Catalysis

 This class proposes to understand how synthetic catalysts can gather key features of enzymes in order to increase their performance (reactivity, selectivity…). In this respect, this class will give more insights into the use of supramolecular chemistry for the design of (biomimetic) catalyst systems.

Content:

# Supramolecular catalysts by design

# Enzyme-like supramolecular catalysts

# Combinatorial chemistry for drug discovery and catalyst design

# Chemical and electrochemical redox switching of supramolecular catalysts

Validation of M1. Knowledge in supramolecular chemistry, chemical reactivity, spectroscopy and electrochemistry.
