Research Focus
A central focus of modern synthetic organic chemistry is the design of new reactions and synthesis strategies that will facilitate the construction of complex molecules. We are interested in developing fundamental approaches to the assembly of stereochemically dense architecture that have the potential to facilitate investigations aimed at discovery of biologically active small molecules. Areas of active investigation include the development of new convergent C–C bond forming reactions and the application of these methods to target- and diversity-oriented synthesis.
