Research in our group focuses on the development of new synthetic methods and on finding solutions to a variety of synthesis problems. Our program in developing new methods is particularly focused on reactions we feel have the potential to change the way scientists approach the construction of organic molecules. For example, development of carbon–carbon sigma bond activation could open up unusual disconnections in retrosynthetic analysis, leading to new or more efficient syntheses of desirable molecules. We are also interested in new approaches to conjugated systems applicable in organic electronics, particularly the linear acenes including derivatives of tetracene, pentacene, and polyacene, a long-sought polymer. Our interest in synthesis extends well beyond organic electronics to encompass biologically relevant compounds. Several natural product targets of interest appear to the right.
