Catalysis and Synthetic Methodology Faculty

Synthesis forms an important component of many research groups. In addition, several research programs have a substantial component focused on developing new reactions and methodologies. There is a special emphasis on transition-metal based methods, for both small molecule and polymer/materials synthesis.
