      Isolation of natural products with potential antitumor activity from marine organisms using extraction and chromatography techniques. Analysis and purification by HPLC and structure elucidation using various NMR techniques. This work was an important part (18 ECTS) of the "Master in Organic Chemistry" coordinated by the Autónoma University of Madrid together by other two spanish universities.

      Synthesis of new structures with axial chirality based on N-heterocyclic carbenes and applications in asymmetric catalysis. The synthetic pathways often involved the use of inert atmosphere and anhydrous media due to highly sensitive reactants and catalysts and the most usual characterization techniques: nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry.
