A series of templated [Mg(1-x)Alx(OH)2]x+(CO3)x/n2- with different structural properties have been synthesised using an alkali-free coprecipitation route. The macroporous materials were been obtained using two different kind of templating agents, polymeric materials, in order to cover a bigger size range (750-70 nm). All the materials have been characterized by different techniques: porosimetry, SEM-EDX, TEM-EDX, MP-AES, XRD, CO2 titration before and after the calcinations process. All the materials have been tested for transesterification reaction of C4-C8 triglycerides with methanol for biodiesel production.

Cerium oxide in catalysis can be used both as support and as a catalyst itself. Ceria catalyses many oxidations reactions, its excellent catalytic properties are due to its store oxygen storage capacity (OSC) and the reticular defects present on its surface. Different morphologies expose different reticular planes, and different reticular planes can expose different amounts of defects. The preparation method of cerium oxide can influence the surface area, morphology, and the number of defects in the sample. This work is focused on different preparation methods for gold nanoparticles supported on 1D nanostructures of cerium oxide prepared via electrospinning, their XRD, DRUV-Vis and Raman characterizations, and their catalytic performance on the oxidation reaction of HMF to FDCA.

(9R)-9-hydroxystearic acid (9R-HSA) has been proven to have antitumoral activity because it is shown to inhibit histone deacetylase 1, an enzyme which activates DNA replication, and the (R)-enantiomer has been shown to be more active than the (S)-enantiomer both in vitro and by molecular docking. Hydroxyapatite is the main mineral component of bone and teeth and has been used for over 20 years in prostheses and their coating because it is biocompatible and bioactive. The goal of incorporating 9R-HSA into hydroxyapatite is to have a material that combines the bioactivity of HA with the antitumoral properties of 9R-HSA. In this work, 9R-HSA and its potassium salt were synthesized and the latter was also incorporated into hydroxyapatite. The content of (R)-9-hydroxystearate ion incorporated into the apatitic structure was shown to be a function of its concentration in solution and can reach values higher than 8.5%. (9R)-9-hydroxystearic acid modified hydroxyapatite was extensively characterized to determine the effect of the incorporation of the organic molecule. This incorporation does not significantly alter the unit cell but reduces the size of both the crystals as well as the coherent domains, mainly along the a-axis of hydroxyapatite. This is believed to be due to the coordination of the negatively charged carboxylate group to the calcium ions which are more exposed on the (100) face of the crystal, therefore limiting the growth mainly in this direction. Further analyses showed that the material becomes hydrophobic and more negatively charged with the addition of 9R-HSA but both of these properties reach a plateau at less than 5% wt of 9R-HSA.

This thesis project presents a work based on the study of bis-arylboryl-carbazoles a particular class of aminoboranes. The peculiarity of these compounds is the -B=N+ chemical moiety and their conformational behaviour coming from the combination of steric constrain and conjugation of the B-N bond. Our work is focused on three products: 9-(mesityl(naphthalen-1-yl)boraneyl)-9H-carbazole 1a, 9-(mesityl(2-methylnaphthalen-1-yl)boraneyl)-9H-carbazole 1b and 9-(anthracen-9-yl(mesityl)boraneyl)-9H-carbazole 1c. We firstly focused our attention on the synthesis optimizing conditions. Then the products were synthetized and characterized with NMR. The products were eventually analysed through conformational studies, by a theoretical approach with DFT calculations and by experimental techniques, such as standard kinetic and EXSY. In the end of this work the products were characterized through fluorescence studies both by DFT, TD-DFT calculations and experimentally by emission spectroscopy.

This thesis investigates the synthesis of polymeric ionic liquid [(poly-acryloyloxy)6C6C1im][NTf2], by free radical polymerization of acryloyl imidazolium-base ionic liquid monomer [(acryloyloxy)6C6C1im][NTf2]. Moreover, the smartest synthetic route to obtain this monomer was investigated. Two different synthesis were compared. The first one started from the preparation of the monomer 6-chlorohexyl acrylate followed by substitution and metathesis to reach ionic liquid monomer. The second one started from synthesis of the ionic liquid [(HO)6C6C1im]Cl followed by metathesis and esterification in order to get ionic liquid monomer [(acryloyloxy)6C6C1im][NTf2].

The importance of pyrazole and lactam-based molecules in medical and pharmaceutical fields is underlined by the multitude of active ingredients on trade, such as Sildenafil or Apixaban, by Pfizer. In this work, a synthesis of an organic molecule with promising anticancer activity has been developed. This molecular scaffold is characterized by a δ-lactam-fused pyrazolic core, with a well-known biological activity and amenable of further functionalization. The synthetic strategy adopted for the obtainment of the core was based on a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a nitrilimine with an α,β-unsaturated δ-lactam. Secondly, in order to give the final compound an elevated pharmacological activity, a functionalization with a double “side chain”, namely molecular fragment able to improve the interaction with particular biological receptors, was achieved. The target compound was thus obtained, with a highly convergent synthesis, and will be tested for antiproliferative activities towards different cellular lines.

L’obiettivo del progetto è stato quello di realizzare ed analizzare aggregati artificiali creati attraverso geopolimerizzazione e macro-incapsulazione di paraffina in aggregati leggeri espansi, discutendo i loro possibili impieghi nelle pavimentazioni stradali. Dopo un'accurata calibrazione delle miscele geopolimeriche, sono stati realizzati degli aggregati artificiali, in seguito caratterizzati in accordo con la norma UNI EN 10343, con l'intento di sostituire materiali stradali vergini. Contemporaneamente, sono stati prodotti aggregati leggeri impregnati di paraffina (PCM), in grado di cambiare fase una volta raggiunti all'incirca i 3 °C, e successivamente rivestiti da due strati di resina poliestere e polvere di granito, denominati PLA: sfruttandone le proprietà termiche, si è valutato il loro possibile utilizzo come soluzione anti-icing. L’ultima fase della ricerca è stata incentrata nella realizzazione di aggregati geopolimerici espansi e molto porosi che potessero contenere una elevata quantità di PCM, sostituendo l'argilla espansa utilizzata nella produzione degli PLA.

Manganese Hexacyanoferrate (MnHCF) and nickel doped manganese hexacyanoferrate were synthesized by simple co-precipitation method. The water content and chemical formula was obtained by TGA and MP-AES measurements, functional groups by FT-IR analysis, the crystal structure by PXRD and a local geometry by XAS. Elemental species of cycled samples were further investigated by TXM and 2D XRF. Electrochemical tests were performed in the glass cell. With addition of nickel, vacancies and water content increased in the sample. Crystal structure changed from monoclinic to cubic. Ni disturbed the local structure of Mn, site, however, almost no change was observed in Fe site. After charge/discharge cycling of MnHCF intercalation was already found in the peripheries of charged species after 20 cycle in 2D XRF analysis and randomly distributed intercalated regions after 50 cycles in TXM analysis. Cyclic voltammetry showed that peak-to-peak separation is increasing in case of the addition of Ni to MnHCF.

Sodium manganese hexacyanoferrate (NaMnHCF) and its derivatives have been synthesized by simple co-precipitation method with addition of the citric and ascorbic acids respectively. The correspondent crystal structure, water content, chemical formula and a deep structural investigation of prepared samples have been performed by means of the combination of the laboratory and synchrotron techniques (PXRD, FT-IR, TGA, MP-AES and XAS). Electrochemical tests have been done using three-electrode system in sodium nitrate solution at different concentration. From cyclic voltammetry curves, Fe3+/2+ redox peak has been observed, whereas Mn3+/2+ peak was not always evident. Structural stability of the cycled samples has then been tested using 2D XRF imaging and Transmission X-ray microscopy (TXM) techniques. The intercalation of NaMnHCF after 20 cycles has been found by micro-XANES analysis of the highlighted spots which have been found in the XRF images. TXM has also confirmed the appearance of the intercalated particles after 50 cycles comparing the spectra between charged and discharged materials at three different edges (Mn, Fe and N). However, by comparison with lithium samples, it seems obvious that sodium samples are more homogeneous and intercalation is at the very beginning indicating the relative structural stability of sodium manganese hexacyanoferrate electrode material.

Next to conventional solar panels that harvest direct sunlight, p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have been developed, which are able to harvest diffuse sunlight. Due to unwanted charge recombination events p-type DSSCs exhibit low power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). Previous research has shown that dye-redox mediator (RM) interactions can prevent these recombination events, resulting in higher PCEs. It is unknown how the nature of dye-RM interactions affects the PCEs of pseudorotaxane-based solar cells. In this research this correlation is investigated by comparing one macrocycle, the 3-NDI, in combination with the three dyes that contains a recognition sites. 2D-DOSY-NMR experiments have been conducted to evaluate the diffusion constants (LogD) of the three couple. The research project has been stopped due to the coronavirus pandemic. The continuation of this thesis would have been to synthesize a dye on the basis of the data obtained from the diffusion tests and attempt the construction of a solar cell to then evaluate its effectiveness. During my training period I synthetized new Fe(0) cyclopentadienone compounds bearing a N-Heterocyclic Carbene ligand. The aim of the thesis was to achieve water solubility by modifications of the cyclopentadienone ligand. These new complexes have been modified using a sulfonation reaction, replacing an hydroxyl with a sulfate group, on the alkyl backbone of the cyclopentadienone ligand. All the complexes were characterized with IR, ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopy, and a new Fe(0) cyclopentadienone complex, involved as an intermediate, was obtained as a single crystal and was characterized also with X-Ray spectroscopy.

La mia tesi si concentra sulla sintesi e funzionalizzazione di nanoparticelle d’argento studiandone l’interazione, tramite esperimenti in vitro, con cellule sane di fibroblasti murini NIH-3T3 e cellule tumorali da nodulo al seno MCF7. L’utilizzo di polielettroliti quali PDADMAC, PAH e PSS ha permesso la modifica delle proprietà superficiali delle nanoparticelle. Le nuove proprietà chimico-fisiche sono state caratterizzate tramite Dynamic Light Scattering, potenziale zeta e spettroscopia UV-vis. L’effetto della ricopertura con polielettroliti è stato valutato tramite test di vitalità cellulare somministrando le nanoparticelle funzionalizzate alle cellule sopracitate. Successivamente, è stata ottimizzata la procedura per un’ulteriore ricopertura sulle nanoparticelle cariche con BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) valutando diversi fattori chiave. Le nanoparticelle ricoperte di albumina sono state caratterizzate e la composizione qualitativa della loro protein corona è stata ottenuta tramite analisi SDS-PAGE. Infine, le nanoparticelle ricoperte di BSA sono state somministrate alle due linee cellulari valutando l’effetto dell’albumina sulla risposta biologica tramite analisi di vitalità cellulare e immunofluorescenza.

This study is focused on the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of new low nuclearity iron carbide carbonyl clusters. In particular, the oxidation of the highly reduced monocarbide tetraanionic cluster [Fe6C(CO)15]4- was studied in details using different oxidants ([Cp2Fe][PF6], HBF4·Et2O, MeI and EtI), different stoichiometries and experimental conditions. Different products were obtained depending on the reaction conditions, among which previously reported [Fe6C(CO)16]2- and [Fe5C(CO)14]2-, and new [Fe6C(CO)14(CO)13]4- and [Fe5C(CO)13(COMe)]3- were isolated and fully characterized. In the second part of this study, the reactions of [Fe6C(CO)15]4- with organic or inorganic molecules containing sulphur (S8, S2Cl2 and PhSH) were investigated aiming at introducing S-atoms within the structure of iron carbide carbonyl clusters. In particular, the reaction of [Fe6C(CO)15]4- with PhSH afforded the new [Fe6C(CO)14(SPh)]3- cluster. Conversely, using S8 and S2Cl2, oxidation of [Fe6C(CO)15]4- occurred following a path similar to that observed with other oxidizing agents. All these species have been analyzed by Single Crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) and IR spectroscopy.
