Welcome to the Doyle group website! Research in our lab centers on the discovery and development of new catalytic routes to chiral building blocks of importance in the enantioselective synthesis of natural products, pharmaceuticals, and materials. The overarching goal of the research program is the identification of practical and general methods for the synthesis of heteroatom-containing multifunctional compounds, including 2-substituted N-containing heterocycles and organic molecules containing fluorinated stereogenic centers. Projects in the group are designed to provide students with expertise in reaction discovery and development, while exposing them to problems in complex target synthesis and mechanistic analysis.
