ERC DUO - Clement Camp

Start date: November, 1st 2022

End date: October, 31st, 2027

Summary:

The central objective of the DUO project is the development of original, well-defined and highly dispersed heterobimetallic supported catalysts using a molecular approach. Its chemical foundation is to take advantage of both (1) metal-metal cooperative effects and (2) site-isolation benefits, in combination, to achieve unprecedented and highly reactive active sites. This will ultimately lead to new bond activation pathways to tackle challenging catalytic transformations.

News:
