Chemistry of Functional Molecules

We create novel transition metal catalysts which can realize high activity and selectivity, and develop highly efficient and practical synthetic organic reactions, such as C-H transformations. We also create high-performance organic functional materials, such as π-conjugated molecules and polymers. We aim to solve energy and environmental problems through these projects.<br />1.
