Research Interests
Bioinorganic Chemistry Heterogeneous catalysis
Biography
Her main interests lie in the study of metalloporphyrins and preparation of catalytic species for heterogeneous process for oxidation reaction, sequential reaction and esterification reaction, based on immobilization of catalytic species on solids like mesoporous silicas, layered compounds diferent metal oxydes. Shirley was director of the Inorganic division of the Brazilian Chemical Society –SBQ (2014-2017), Brazilian Chemical Society board and consultive council member (2018-2020) and SBQ next president-elect (2022-2024).
Education
Shirley Nakagaki studied Chemistry at University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto Campus - USP - São Paulo state (1982-1985). She received her Master degree from the UNESP - University of the state of Sao Paulo at Araraquara, in 1988 and PhD from the same University in 1993, under supervision of Professor Yassuko Iamamoto. She conducted her postdoctoral research at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) under supervision of Professor Kenneth S. Suslick, working with Microporous Porphyrin Solids (2002-2003). She also acted as a visiting professor at the University of Kyoto (1995...
