Synthetic methodology, catalysis and green chemistry
Organic molecules underpin huge areas of modern life, from pharmaceuticals to functional materials and beyond. However, making the molecules society needs can be enormously challenging, inefficient and expensive. New methods in organic synthesis are needed all the time.
Our group invents and develops new methods to build organic molecules in ever faster, cheaper and more environmentally sustainable ways. We use several strategies to achieve this. These include:
- Catalytic C-H functionalisation
- Aryne Chemistry
- Mechanochemistry
