Main Group Catalysis for Organic and Polymer Synthesis
|
Main group catalysts, which feature s- and p-block elements, are appealing alternatives to transition metal catalysts due to their potentially lower environmental impact. Research in the Liberman-Martin Group focuses on the development of catalysts featuring main group elements for organic and polymer synthesis.
Our research involves: (1) synthesis of main group catalysts, (2) exploration of new catalytic reactions, and (3) investigation of catalytic reaction mechanisms. |
