Research Statement
Our research program at the University of Texas at Arlington involves synthetic organic chemistry and organometallic chemistry. The goal of our research is to develop direct, more streamlined, and sustainable catalytic methods to synthesize transformative molecules with significant functions and to advance our understanding of the associated catalytic mechanisms. Benefits which accrue from our multi-disciplinary research projects include the introduction of sustainable chemical synthesis and catalysis fields to high school, undergraduate, and graduate students’ STEM education.
Research Areas of Interest
Chemical Synthesis
Synthesis of biologically relevant molecules, new reaction development, and reaction mechanisms
Chemical Catalysis
