报告人简介：
Prof. Dr. Ally Aukauloo is full Professor of Coordination and Bioinorganic Chemistry at the Paris-Saclay University and the head of Artificial Photosynthesis research group and Inorganic chemistry team at Institut de Chimie Moléculaire et des Materiaux d’Orsay (ICMMO). He is a distinguished researcher in sustainable energy chemistry. He earned his PhD in Chemistry in 1994from the University de Bourgogne, France, and the University of Cologne, Germany, under the supervision of Professor Roger Guillard and Professor Emmanuel Vogel. In 1995, he was appointed Assistant Professor at the Paris-Saclay University. From 1999 to 2000, he worked as an Associate Researcher in the group of Professor James Collman at Stanford University, USA. In 2007, he was appointed Full Professor of Coordination and Bioinorganic Chemistry at the Paris-Saclay University. His research focuses on addressing key energy challenges via molecular approaches, with specialized expertise in artificial photosynthesis, CO₂ reduction, water oxidation, light-induced electron transfer, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis. His work continues to drive the development of innovative solutions for sustainable energy conversion and storage through molecular engineering and catalytic design.

报告简介：
We develop metalloporphyrins and metallo phthalocyanins to replicate the different events in natural photosynthesis: (1) Light induced electron transfer models of P680-TyrZ, we have developed a fused imidazole-phenol with a phthalocyanine as a model for the latest discovery of chlorophyll f driven photosynthesis ay 727 nm. (2) For the CO₂ reduction, we build on results in the literature to enhance the catalytic efficiency of metallophyrins and metallophthalocyanines by embarking chemical functions to develop multipoint hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interaction and designed bimetallic complexes. (3)

Porphyrins are known to stabilize highly oxidized metal oxo species. We have designed mononuclear and dinuclear metalloporphyrins that can activate and oxidize water.
