Research fields: 1.) homogeneous catalysis 2.) transition metal catalysts 3.) borrowing hydrogen/ hydrogen autotransfer 4.) organic synthesis 5.) green chemistry 6.) N-heterocycles 7.) single crystal X-Ray analysis The development of novel catalytic reactions, in which alcohols are converted into important classes of compounds, contributes to the saving of our fossil carbon resources and the lowering of CO2 emission since alcohols can be obtained from indigestible and abundantly available biomass.
