Funded Activity Summary

Next Generation Photocatalysis for Chemical Synthesis and Manufacture. This project aims to discover new methods for the activation of energy demanding bonds in organic molecules as a general strategy in chemical synthesis. A key conceptual advance in this project is the development of multiphoton photoredox catalysis as a powerful tool to activate traditionally unreactive, yet abundant chemical bonds in organic molecules including C-H bonds in alkane and olefin feedstocks. With application in fields that range from fine chemical production to drug discovery, the overarching aim of this research is to establish new bond activation reactions and to demonstrate translations to the invention of new pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and advanced chemical manufacturing processes that will have societal impact.
