Organic synthesis is the science aiming at preparing carbon-containing substances. Despite the popular belief that it is now possible to prepare any organic molecule, organic synthesis is still in an urgent need of significant advances, for a more efficient assembly of complex structures, a cleaner environmental footprint, and more cost effective. As a consequence, organometallic chemistry and transition-metal catalysis, organocatalysis and photochemistry have seen a recent increase in research activity. The use of light in synthesis is particularly appealing for many reasons: light is a very clean reagent, for which the unused excess can be freely released without significant harm, and it allows the construction of complex structures in a very rapid way. In this project, we will study a) the use of light in new photocycloadditions, b) develop new tools for the photorelease of active substances, and c) exploit and improve peptide bond-forming photoprocesses.
