本研究的重点是环氧酮类化合物的合成与研究。具体而言，将进行天然产物马霉素的合成，并研究该化合物的作用机理。研究经验被用作本科生和研究生教学的重点。Peter Wipf博士是由合成有机项目资助的院长研究员。他将专注于新的合成方法的设计及其在天然产物化学中的应用。Wipf博士将参与本科生和研究生的教学工作。

The focus of this research is the synthesis and study of epoxy ketones. Specifically, the synthesis of the natural product manumycin will be carried out and the mechanism of action of the compound will be studied. Research experience is used as a focal point for the teaching of both undergraduate and graduate students. Dr. Peter Wipf is being funded by the Synthetic Organic Program as a Presidential Faculty Fellow. He will focus his research efforts on the design of new sunthetic methodology and its application to natural products chemistry. Dr. Wipf will be involved in the teaching of both undergraduate and graduate students.
