Bio
My research interests are in the exploration and development of organometallic chemistry of the transmetallation of organic groups between metals and boron compounds. This research is composed of two major projects: 1) The migration of organic groups from organoboranes to metals, giving rise to new organometallic complexes based in part on groups formed using boranes; 2) The transfer of organic groups from metals to boron, yielding new unavailable organoboranes. These projects show exceptional promise in advancing synthetic organic methodology combining the attributes of metals and organoboranes.
