Catalysis applied to organic synthesis
We are a chemistry research group based at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany. Our research interests span from the invention of new catalytic transformations to the design of novel catalysts to uncover previously unknown pathways. The main goal of the research group is to provide efficient, robust and sustainable methodologies for organic synthesis while deciphering the mechanistic intricacies behind them.

Mga Interes sa Pananaliksik
For much of modern history, the use of simple chemical units has served as the primary platform from which to build molecular complexity. While modifications of these feedstock chemicals has enabled incredible progress in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials industries, the process itself is often non-trivial. To this end, transition metal catalysis has become an indispensable tool in the development of efficient and synthetically viable strategies for activation of these molecules. However, the continued use of non-earth abundant, toxic and expensive metal catalysts represents an enormous challenge that must be addressed if true sustainability in these industries is to be realized. To this end, our research group focuses on the invention and implementation of basic catalytic alternatives, which secure sustainable and environmentally friendly approaches in organic chemistry.
