(Organic Synthesis - Catalysis for Asymmetric Synthesis and Developing New Synthetic Methods)

• Our group research interests are directed toward finding new and interesting organic transformations (i.e. the discovery and development of new synthetic methods)

• Developing new synthetic strategies to synthesize various fluorine-containing molecules

• C–C and C–X bond formation utilizing weakly acidic pronucleophiles

• The development of synthetic strategies to synthesize functionalized heterocycles

• Asymmetric catalysis using a binary catalytic system comprising a chiral Lewis acid and a Brønsted base

• Asymmetric catalysis promoted by the chiral organocatalyst

• Total synthesis of molecules having biological and pharmaceutical significance and also streamlining the synthetic routes for the drug molecules in shorter synthetic steps
