In general, my lab does organic synthesis, capillary gas chromatography, catalysis, and purification techniques.
Current research projects
(a) Discovery of new reactions using capillary GC and GC-MS.
(b) Making new derivative of 2,6-bis-hydrazinopyridine as scaffolds for binding two metals in close proximity.
(c) Making new pinene-based chiral ligands.
(d) Preparation of nonlinear optical materials for treating gold surfaces.
