BLACKMONDLAB

Our research focuses on kinetics and mechanistic studies of complex catalytic reactions, particularly asymmetric catalysis. Applications of this work include streamlining pharmaceutical process research as well as the predictive design of new catalysts and catalytic conditions. Our group developed Reaction Progress Kinetic Analysis (RPKA) and Temperature Scanning Reactions (TSR) for rapid and data-dense mechanistic analysis. We probe complex reaction networks using a variety of experimental an computational tools.
