Developement of New Synthetic Methods for Nitrogen-containing Compounds

In this project, we have embarked on the development of new synthetic methods for nitrogen-containing compounds by exploiting transition metal catalysis. For example, we have developed (1) methods to incorporate nitrogen and oxygen, carbon, sulfur into unsaturated molecules, (2) new methods to generate reactive metallacycles and their synthetic applications, (3) new methods to synthesize nitrogen heterocycles via cleavage of a carbon–hydrogen bond. These new methods offer efficient ways to nitrogen-containing compounds that are otherwise difficult to access.
