Biography
The Hanson group has an ongoing interest in the development of novel methods for the design and synthesis of diverse S- and P-heterocycles as potential small molecule drug probes/leads. Utilizing a diversity-oriented synthesis (DOS) approach in combination with a variety metrics (bioinformatics), a number of protocols have been recently developed to access collections of diverse S-heterocycles, namely sultams.
Research Interest
Synthetic methods, natural product synthesis, transition metal-catalyzed methods, asymmetric methods, S- and P-heterocycles, immobilized reagent development, drug discovery and delivery, and chemical methods for library development.
