    Bologna, September 26 – 28, 2011

     

     

    October 11 of 2010 :

    The Institute of Physical Chemistry actively participates in the establishment of the European Photocatalysis Federation and the coordination of the corresponding research activities in Greece.

     

     

    The 6th Summer School on Methods in Micro-Nanotechnology and Nanobiotechnology will be held in Athens, Greece September 13 - 17, 2010.  

    The Summer School is co-organized by the Institutes of Physical Chemistry, Microelectronics,  Radioisotopes & Radiodiagnostic Products and Materials Science,  NCSR Demokritos, in collaboration with the Foundation for Biomedical Research of the Academy of Athens.

    The Summer School  is co-sponsored by the project, Marie Curie ITN CYCLON  ( http://www.itn-cyclon.eu )  coordinated by the  Institute of Physical Chemistry.

    Natural Products Synthesis & Bioorganic Chemistry

     Research Objectives / Activities

    Our group is involved in the design and synthesis of organic compounds.  The targeted molecules are mainly natural products or designed analogues with the aim to develop novel synthetic strategies, explore the potential of new synthetic methods, and prepare and study novel compounds with interesting and/or improved biological activity and possible pharmaceutical applications. Modern synthetic methods and techniques, including combinatorial chemistry, are exploited for their preparation (either in solution or on solid support) and the evaluation of their biological activity is performed through collaboration with specialized laboratories.  In parallel, the expertise of the team in the design and synthesis of complex organic molecules is exploited for the preparation of organic molecules with possible technological applications (e.g. photoresist etch enhancement additives, linkers for the preparation of polymers) or molecules with interesting supramolecular behavior.

    Indicative accomplishements of the group are the total synthesis of Trichodimerol (TNF-α inhibitor), Bastadins (a family of marine natural products that modulate Ca2+ homeostasis and have antiangiogenic activity), Oxazinins (marine toxins related to “red tide” insidents), and the efficient and short synthesis of the pharmacophoric core of Scyphostatin (selective inhibitor of Neutral Sphingomyelinase, N-SMase).
