Unlocking the Mysteries of Science

We are interested in studying the fundamental areas of science which shape and guide the processes of the natural world. Our long-term goal is to identify and characterize the scientific mechanisms specific to our principal areas of research. You can read on to find out more about these projects below.

Heterocyclic Chemistry

Incorporation of an oxygen, a nitrogen, a sulfur, or an atom of a related element into an organic ring structure in place of a carbon atom gives rise to a heterocyclic compound. Since the heterocyclic atom must form more than one bond in order to be incorporated into a ring structure, halogens do not form heterocyclic compounds although they may be substituents on a heterocyclic ring structure. Heterocyclic compounds, like polycyclic ring compounds, are usually known by non-systematic names.ith more sensitive measurements and improved data collection.

Nanocatalysis

Nanocatalysis is a rapidly growing field which involves the use of nanomaterials as catalysts for a variety of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis applications. Heterogeneous catalysis represents one of the oldest commercial practices of nanoscience; nanoparticles of metals, semiconductors, oxides, and other compounds have been widely used for important chemical reactions.

Synthetic methodologies

Synthetic organic chemistry is the art of building-up organic compounds from smaller entities. This science has found application in the production of organic compounds of commercial interest, in the construction of new, potentially bioactive molecules derived from rational design, in the challenge to synthesize very complex natural products, in finding new methods and strategies to render this service more efficient.
