Access to sp3 borylated and silylated cyclic molecules: Hydrogenation of corresponding arenes and heteroarenes
Arzoo a 6th year PhD Candidate in Organic Chemistry at Michigan State University, working under the guidance of Professor Rob Maleczka. My current research focus include developing novel strategies for iridium-catalyzed C-H activation and borylation, using a bench-stable heterogeneous catalyst via hydrogenation, and performing DFT studies to predict and compare reaction mechanisms.
