Our primary research focus is to develop new synthetic methods using catalysis as the main tool with special focus on visible light photoredox catalysis, transition metal catalysis & asymmetric catalysis. These synthetic methods will later be used for applications in total synthesis of natural products, drugs & other bioactive compounds. Our other area of interest is prebiotic chemistry & biomimetic chemistry wherein we try to understand the origin of essential life components on the primitive earth.
