Welcome
Our research group has interests in a number of areas including: synthetic organic chemistry - encompassing the development of rearrangement reactions, the use of enzymes in synthesis and the design and application of efficient and reliable click-type reactions, all of which are aimed at the synthesis of bioactive molecules and synthetically useful chemical building blocks; we are also interested in the biological activity of the molecules we make, and current interest lies in the anticancer properties of a range of privileged structures, and in particular their activity against a number of glioma cell lines.
