Abitare nel reale. Dalla crisi della periferia alla tessitura di nuove relazioni contestuali
2019
I progetti redatti per “Palermo Sud-Est” sono il risultato di un Laboratorio di Laurea strutturatosi attraverso incontri, seminari, comunicazioni specialistiche, esposizioni critiche, che – in una strategia condivisa – ha visto ogni studente elaborare il proprio lavoro nel confronto con gli altri attori del Laboratorio stesso. La ricerca sui “progetti urbani” è stata impostata di modo che ogni laureando fosse messo a conoscenza dei progetti svolti nello stesso ambito territoriale dai colleghi che l’avevano preceduto, così da poter operare in continuità e contribuire a formulare un ragionamento unitario, nel quale ogni progetto costituisse continuazione, verifica o anche variante dei precede…
Multifunctional platforms for cancer theranosis
2018
The objective of this thesis was to develop multifunctional tools for cancer theranosis, particularly based on nanotechnology. The work is based on the premise of monomolecular multimodal platform that aims to create the building blocks that can be used for the synthesis of functionalized nanoparticles, bioconjugates or targeted small molecular imaging probes.The initial work focused on the synthesis of the chelator based silane precursors. These novel precursors were employed for the functionalization of AGuIX nanoparticles and have also been implicated in a one pot AGuIX synthesis. Radiolabelling of these nanoparticles was performed with the aim to evaluate the stability of these nanopart…

A redox-sensitive nanofluidic diode based on nicotinamide-modified asymmetric nanopores
2017
[EN] We demonstrate a redox-sensitive nanofluidic diode whose ion rectification is modulated by the oxidation and reduction of chemical moieties incorporated on its surface. To achieve this goal, we have first synthesized the chemical compounds 1-(4-aminobutyl)-3-carbamoylpyridin-1-ium (Nic-BuNH2) and 3-carbamoyl-1-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)pyridinium (Nic-DNP). Then, the surface of track-etched single asymmetric nanopores is decorated with the redox-sensitive Nic-BuNH2 and Nic-DNP molecules using carbodiimide coupling chemistry and Zincke reaction, respectively. The success of the modification reactions is monitored through the changes in the current¿voltage (I¿V) curves prior to and after pore f…
Synthesis of a new family of bi- and polycyclic compounds via Pd-catalyzed amination of 1,7-di(3-bromobenzyl)cyclen
2008
Abstract New bicyclic cryptand type compounds are synthesized by reacting 1,7-di(3-bromobenzyl)cyclen with 1 equiv of linear polyamines under dilute conditions using Pd-catalyzed amination. Bis(cyclen) and tris(cyclen) compounds containing linear polyamine linkers between benzylated cyclens are obtained by a similar procedure using different reaction conditions. Cyclization of these species via intramolecular catalytic diamination led to tri- and tetracyclic polyaza compounds.
Hybrid heterostructures and materials based on transition metal dichalcogenides
2020
La irrupción de los nanomateriales en la vida moderna es un claro indicador del avance científico. El diseño de materiales a la carta permite establecer un control preciso sobre las propiedades finales de estos. El objetivo principal que ha motivado la presente Tesis es la combinación y funcionalización de láminas de MoS2 ultrafinas químicamente exfoliadas (ce-MoS2) con diferentes sistemas de base molecular. La Tesis se divide en los siguientes Capítulos: Capítulo I: En primer lugar, se introducen brevemente los nanomateriales. En segundo lugar, se describen los materiales bidimensionales (2D). A continuación, se detallan algunos aspectos generales de los dicalcogenuros de metales de transi…
Technological innovation around protein and cell biochip for diagnosis: a translational research from nanoworld to patient
2009
International audience; A great challenge in biosensors and diagnosis devices relies on the way to reconstitute relevant biological mechanisms on surface of the biochips and which analytical tools are convenient to provide accurate and rapid information on the structures and function of molecules attached to this surface. A better control in the realization of biochips can be obtained in combining different complementary approaches while always keeping in mind the biological key point. Researches in CLIPP are focused towards this objective. Conception, realization and characterization of protein and cell chips are presented. We detail different strategies of materials engineering1,2,3, chem…
Etude dynamique et structurale de biomolécules par microscopie à force atomique HS-AFM : application à une petite protéine de choc thermique sHsp
2012
The atomic force microscopy (AFM) gives access to the topography of organic and inorganic samplesat the atomic scale. The latest innovations offer the possiblity to understand the sample nano-mechanicalproperties (elasticity, adhesion...). Its feature set allows overcoming the demands of nanotechnology,both in the fields of physics, chemistry and biology.However, understanding biological processes require faster acquisitions for the atomic forcemicroscopy, less than a second per frame. As conventional equipment does not offer the possibility toovercome the constraint of time for dynamical studies, a prototype of high-speed atomic forcemicroscope (HS-AFM) was developed in partnership with Pr…
DFT calculations of structures, 13C NMR chemical shifts, and Raman RBM mode of simple models of small‐diameter zigzag (4,0) carboxylated single‐walle…
2012
Linearly conjugated benzene rings (acenes), belt‐shaped molecules (cyclic acenes), and models of single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with one carboxylic group at the open end were fully optimized at the B3LYP/6‐31G* level of theory. These models were selected to obtain some insight into the nuclear isotropic changes resulting from systematically increasing the basic building units of open‐tip‐monocarboxylated SWCNTs. In addition, the position of radial breathing mode (RBM), empirically correlated with the SWCNT diameter, was directly related with the radius of model cyclic acene rings. A regular convergence of selected structural, NMR, and Raman parameters with the molecular system size…
Synthesis of highly functionalized β-aminocyclopentanecarboxylate stereoisomers by reductive ring opening reaction of isoxazolines
2012
A rapid and simple procedure was devised for the synthesis of multifunctionalized cyclic β-amino esters and γ-amino alcohols via the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides to β-aminocyclopentenecarboxylates. The opening of the isoxazoline reductive ring to the corresponding highly functionalized 2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylates occurred stereoselectively with good yields.
