Research Projects

Design and synthesis of functionalized chiral pyridine and quinoline analogs.
Synthesis of anti-HIV drugS (Efavirenz and etc.,) via in situ systematic modification of chiral Schiff bases.
Synthesis of natural products through 1,2-addition of organometallic reagents to carbonyl compounds.
Synthesis of the agricultural drugs (Indoxacarb and etc.,) via in situ systematic modification of N-Heterocyclic carbenes.
The selective metalations on various active ingredients with adamantyl-derived bases (Li, Mg, Zn).
Late-stage functionalization of drug analogs (covid-19): Synthesis of HCQ, Remdesivir, Rheumatoid arthritis, and Galidesivir analogs.
