Brief introduction to our research field
(NAS-KAST symposium)

In our ongoing research, we are dedicated to advancing the realms of photochemical and electrochemical organic synthesis. Our primary goal is to redefine photo- and electrocatalysis, enabling the efficient synthesis of value-added molecules from raw chemical feedstock.
We endeavor to pioneer a fresh conceptual framework, pushing the boundaries of both photochemical and electrochemical synthetic organic methodologies. Through our exploration of innovative approaches, we strive to contribute to the creation of sustainable and economically feasible pathways in organic synthesis, utilizing state-of-the-art photochemical and electrocatalytic techniques.
Furthermore, we are concurrently conducting research that applies insights gleaned from the electrochemical behavior of organic and organometallic molecules observed in these processes to the development of organic-based battery materials such as organic electrolytes and solvents.
