Previous Research Interests

 Development of new methods in enantioselective synthesis; development and synthetic application of chiral 1-oxyallyl, 1-oxybenzyl, 1-oxyalkyl, 1-thiobenzyl, 1-thioallyl, and indenyl anions: homoaldol reaction; asymmetric deprotonation reactions, mediated by chiral bases such as (-)-sparteine; synthesis of dipeptide isosteres and other potentially biologically active compounds, N-sulfonyl-1,3-oxazolidines as chiral templates and utilization in natural product synthesis.
