Our lab is working towards developing efficient technologies that use feedstock materials and minimize the use of hazardous chemicals in catalytic methods. Our focus is on metal-free conditions for the activation of small molecules and the synthesis of value-added components from cheap materials. Our goal is to maximize the use of renewable resources and promote environmentally sustainable processes. We're also interested in the derivatization of small and volatile molecules to obtain valuable compounds. Our primary interest is the large scale synthesis of pharmaceutically active ingredients (APIs) through asymmetric catalysis. Join us in our pursuit of innovative and versatile catalytic methods for a sustainable future. #Catalysis #Sustainability #Chemistry #Pharmaceuticals
