In this presentation\, research highlights from my group will be presented: a whirlwind tour of molecular catalysis\, heterogeneous catalysis implemen ted in flow\, and the implementation of flow technology to understand the catalytic process – with the aim of showcasing the multidisciplinary natur e of our approach.\n\n1. “Synthesis of isoindolinones by Pd-catalyzed coup ling between N-methoxybenzamide and styrene derivatives”\, C.
