研究领域

1. Green Chemistry: Explore new catalytic reactions that have high atom-efficiency in water and other cleaner media (CO2 and Ionic Liquids), and to transform these reactions into general synthetic tools for synthesizing biologically important compounds and organic materials in a cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner. C-C bond formations via catalytic C-H and C-X activation Catalytic cyclization reactions Catalytic asymmetric reactions Catalytic functionalization of renewable materials. 2. Synthesis of biologically active compounds: Developing new methods for synthesizing natural products and other biologically important compounds. One special interest is to develop synthesis and study of "Chemical Sensitizers" for targeted cancer therapy.
