NextBase is a collaborative project focused on replacing noble metals in chemical reactions with cheaper and less toxic first-row transition metals. This initiative aims to enhance sustainability in the production of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals while training researchers in sustainable catalytic methodologies.
Catalysis is today exploited for preparing ca. 90% of chemical and pharmaceutical products.
Use of catalysts allows for efficient chemical transformations, limiting the energy consumption and improving selectivity and atom economy.
However, a large number of catalytic systems rely on noble metals (e.g., Pd, Pt, Rh, Ir, Au), with associated sustainability and toxicity issues.
Indeed, all these metals are undergoing strong price fluctuations and will face supply limitations in the future.
