Next Generation Synthesis

这项工作雄心勃勃的目标是重新定义有机化学中反应和结构可能的极限。这项研究的目的是推动合成科学在将要制备的结构类型和制备方法方面超越目前的复杂程度。这项工作的一部分侧重于制备尚未屈服于合成的基本类有机化合物。另一个涉及开发化学合成，使其达到比目前使用的效率更高的水平。简而言之，这项工作的目标是扩大边界，无论是在化学结构方面，还是在化学合成的步骤效率方面。

The ambitious aim of this work is to re-define the limits of what is possible in reactions and structure in organic chemistry. This research aims to push the science of synthesis beyond current levels of sophistication in both the types of structures that will be prepared and the methods that will be used preparing them. One section of this work focuses on the preparation of fundamental classes of organic compounds that have not yet succumbed to synthesis. Another involves the development of chemical syntheses that reach levels of efficiency beyond those in current use. Put simply, the goal of this work is to stretch the boundaries, both in terms of chemical structure and in terms of step-efficiency in chemical synthesis.
