Research Interest:

The intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction involving a furan diene which can be used in the synthesis of natural products (e.g. gibberllic acid, morphine, etc.), which contain an oxygenated cyclohexane system. Furthermore the substituted 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-2-heptenesystem obtained by this reaction could be  further transformed into a number of interesting structures. Synthesis, structure and reactivity of heterocyclic compounds especially small-ring heterocycle.

Project Advisor: Able to advise graduate and undergraduate students in research problem,    based on literature and research work.
