Research Interests
My research interests are in the applications of organometallic chemistry to organic synthesis. Organometallic complexes are used as catalysts to mediate organic reactions that either cannot be achieved without a metal, or are much more efficient and practical with the metal present. The goals of my research are to develop new catalysts that are synthetically useful and ultimately to apply the newly developed reaction to a synthetic target. Projects in my group range from synthetic organometallic chemistry (design of new transition metal complexes) to new organic reaction development using transition metal catalysts.
