With 12,000+ known structures, diterpenoids are a prime example of bio-active natural products produced by plants. Many are used as highly valuable pharmaceuticals, fragrances, natural plant growth promoters, food ingredients such as flavours or as colourants and spices. Unfortunately, they are typically produced in minute amounts in plants and their structural complexity render them difficult to prepare from fossil resources using organic chemical synthesis.

One of the most important challenges facing humanity is the switch from fossil fuels to clean energy. Fuel cells are expected to play a key role in a future sustainable society. In order to improve the kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction and reduce the Pt loading, we need to develop more efficient catalysts. This can be achieved by modification of the geometric structure (atomic ensembles) and/or alteration of the electronic properties of the surface atoms (electronic effects).
