Research interests
Our research efforts are directed toward developing new classes of ancillary ligands (including now-commercialized 鈥楧alPhos鈥� ligands) and derived transition metal complexes that exhibit interesting and unusual reactivity, with the goal of incorporating such reactivity into useful catalytic substrate transformations.
