报告人简介：

Romano V.A. Orru holds since December 2019the chair in Organic Chemistry of Biobased Building Blocks at the Aachen-MaastrichtInstitute for Biobased Materials.  He has graduated in 1990 from the Agricultural University of Wageningen (The Netherlands)  and obtained his PhD in 1994 from the same institute on mechanistic aspects of cascade reactionsand their use in the total synthesis of (sesqui)terpenes with Prof. Aede deGroot. He performed postdoctoral work in the group of Prof. Kurt Faber at theKarl-Franzens Universität in Graz (Austria) studying synthetic applications of biotransformations. In 2000 he started his independant scientific career at the Department of Chemistry & Pharmaceutical Sciences of the Vrije Universiteitin Amsterdam. In 2005 he promoted to Associate Professor, and in 2007 toFull Professor in Synthetic & Bioorganic Chemistry. His research focuses on synthetic method development an sustainable one-pot chemistry towards heterocycles, active pharmaceutical ingredients and advanced functional materials.

报告摘要：

The research of Prof Orru focuses on fundamental Organic Chemistry using molecules and materials that Natureprovides. His group delivered in the past 20 years clean, atom-and step-efficient one-pot syntheses for sustainable production of moleculardiverse and structurally complex organic molecules tailored towards higheradded-value in materials, medicines and catalysts. Nature has evolved itssynthetic tools over billions of years with high levels of efficiency andelegance. Orru’s research is inspired by Nature’s approach but takes a nextstep finding efficient synthetic methodologies and strategies that out-performprocesses in biology while taking advantage from the broad range offunctionalities available in bio-based building blocks. Main topics includeCascade Syntheses, Sustainable Catalysis, Multicomponent Reactions, Heterocyclesand Advanced Functional Materials.
