Overview of Research

π-Conjugated molecules have attracted much interest in material science due to their interesting photophysical and electronic properties. We are focusing on the development of novel and beautiful organic compounds with unique properties on the basis of modern organic synthesis such as transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Our research also includes development and applications of our own novel reactions for the synthesis of π-conjugated molecules.

Research Subjects

  • Development of Novel Organic Functional Molecules with Transition Metal Catalysis
  • Development of Efficient Methodologies for Modification of π-Conjugated Molecules and Their Applications
  • Synthesis and Studies of Novel Functional Organometallic Complexes
