معرفی
Erica Benedetti is a CNRS Researcher at Université Paris Cité, affiliated with the Laboratoire de Chimie et Biochimie Pharmacologiques et Toxicologiques (LCBPT) – CNRS UMR 8601. Her work bridges organic chemistry and life sciences, focusing on innovative synthetic methods and photophysical studies of [2.2]paracyclophane derivatives.
- 2018: Habilitation, University Paris Descartes
- 2011: PhD in Chemistry, University of Insubria
- 2008: Master in Chemistry, University of Insubria
Benedetti’s research spans asymmetric catalysis, chemical biology, and photophysics. She develops planar chiral [2.2]paracyclophanes for RNA ligands, luminophores, and photocatalytic applications. Her group explores their optical properties, chiroptical behavior, and use in drug discovery.
Her recent publications highlight trends in cyclophane functionalization, organo-photocatalysis, and lanthanide sensitization. Keywords across her work include Organic Synthesis, Chemical Biology, Photophysics, and Asymmetric Catalysis.
