Research Area
We are conducting two major research projects.The first involves the synthesis of new porphyrinoids to address important questions in physical science. For more details, please refer to the following links: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jacs.3c14390 and https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4c11437.
The second project focuses on tolane (as shown on the left, where two aryl groups are connected to an acetylene group). We are the first group to identify tolane derivatives as fluorescent dyes and to utilize them in supramolecular chemistry. For further information, please refer to these links: https://doi.org/10.1002/bkcs.12838 and https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.orglett.5b03205.
Our other, smaller research field is medicinal chemistry, particularly related to cancer and other topics. Additional details can be found in the following links: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.1021/acs.orglett.9b02823 and https://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/27/7/2135.
