Laboratory for Light-Assisted and Mechanochemical Practices
Welcome to the Laboratory for Light-Assisted and Mechanochemical Practices
Our research focuses on developing innovative methodologies at the interface of photoredox catalysis, radical chemistry, and sustainable organic synthesis. By combining mechanistic insights with practical synthetic strategies, we aim to provide new tools for efficient functional group transformations and their applications in pharmaceuticals, materials, and energy sciences.
Prof. Anuj Sharma
Focuses on developing green and sustainable organic synthetic methods, radical-driven organic transformations, and several radical-based transformations using visible light photoredox conditions or mechanochemical methods.
