Research Interests

Our research is devoted to the development of novel and straightforward organic transformations.

Our primary research goals are:

(I) to functionalize unactivated sp2 and sp3 C-H bond involving transition-metal catalyzed C-H activation and diastereoselective C-H functionalizations.

(II) to showcase one pot multiple functionalization of unactivated C-H bonds.

(III) to demonstrate gold and silver-catalyzed transformations on ynamides.

(IV) to construct unusual complex heteroatom bearing molecules.

(V) to understand the mechanistic insights of the catalytic reactions.

(VI) to fabricate fused-pi-conjugated heterocycles relevance to pharmaceutical importance and materials.

(VII) to design and synthesize N- and O-rich insensitive energetic materials.
