Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Queen's University
$200,000.00
Organic and Organometallic Chemistry
FY 2023-24
Summary
The development of pharmacologically active agents that improve the quality and longevity of human life has had an enormous societal impact on society. Nevertheless, the inherent limitations associated with the tools utilized to discover these agents has hampered the development of new medicines, which also impacts new agrochemicals, materials, etc. For instance, the preparation of a new pharmacophore in a predictable manner requires versatile tools that permit the exploration of three-dimensional space in a systematic manner. This program delineates the development of new bond-forming reactions, which access hitherto underdeveloped/explored structural motifs that are medicinally important.
