Our research interests are focussed on the development of novel phosphorus/boron-based architectures with outstanding electronic and photophysical properties. Our ultimate goal is to conceive multi-functional and biologically-active materials for a wide range of applications.
In particular, through a bottom-up approach, we merge organic and inorganic syntheses to prepare new molecules and tailor their structural features to trigger a multi-responsive behavior at the macromolecular scale or improve their activity in biological media. Implicit is the investigations of new synthetic methods to prepare the novel phosphorus/boron-based molecules.
