Welcome to Wu Lab @ LICP

Prof. Dr. Keiji Maruoka from Kyoto University paid a visit in LICP @ Suzhou and gave a talk about the "Design of New High-Performance Organoradical Catalysts for Selective Organic Synthesis"，during the talk he talked about his research on the development of  novel chiral organic catalysts and their practical application in large scale synthesis and new strategy for peptide synthesis.

Every August 15th of the lunar calendar is our Mid-Autumn Festival. People return home and eat moon cakes with their family and enjoying the full moon.

Xin Cui graduated from Yunnan Minzu University joined our lab as a research associate. Welcome!

Invited by Prof. Wei Sun, Prof. Dr. Shoufei Zhu from Nankai University paid a visit in LICP @ Suzhou and gave a talk about the "Catalytic Hydrogen Transfer Reactions"，during the talk he talked about his research on the development of  novel “chiral proton shuttle” catalysts for metal-catalyzed reactions, which can realize efficient chiral control of proton transfer of active intermediates and various efficient transition-metal catalysts for the hydrogenation and hydrosilylation, which contain metal-hydride transfers as key steps,

Sida graduated from Yunnan Minzu University joined our lab as a research associate. Welcome!

Invited by Dr. Lin He and Dr. Chao Liu, Prof. Aiwen Lei from Wuhan University paid a visit in LICP @ Suzhou and gave a talk about the "Oxidation-induced C-H Activation and Oxidative Cross-coupling"，during the talk he shared the  results of using XAFS to disclose the reaction mechanism and recent progress using electrical chemistry induced one electron reduction for C-H bond cleavage and C-X bond formation reactions.

Invited by Dr. Yue Wang, Prof. Nakano from Hokkaido University paid a short visit to our Lab during his stay in Suzhou.

Many congrats to Xianya, his paper about carbon dioxide reduction using main group species was just accepted!

Dr. Yue Wang graduated from Hokkaido University joined our group as an assistant professor. Welcome!

Prof. Xie from Nanjing University visited us on 2018.10.12, he gave a very interesting talk on the development of synergistic catalysis by using photo-redox catalysts and organic or transition metal catalysts for selective hydroarylation of 1,3-diynes, ketone synthesis from aromatic carboxylic acid and alkenes, umpolung trifluoromethylthiolation of tertiary ethers, inverse hydroboration of imines and stories behind those results.

Prof. Frank Glorius from the University of Munster visited us today and gave a talk titled "On discovery in catalysis". He mainly talked his research from 3 parts, the NHC on/in the surface, hydrogenation of heterocycles and screening strategy he developed for function group tolerance. Most importantly, after his talk, he played Ping-pang with us.

Xiaonan Shi joined our lab today right after her graduation from Henan Normal University, Welcome!

Xianjin Wang, who just graduated from Qingdao University of Science and Technology joined our lab!

​

Prof. Xuefeng Jiang from ECNU was invited by Prof. Wei Sun to give us a lecture on last Friday. He talked about the development of strategies and reagents for sustainable organic synthesis (total synthesis and sulfuration reactions) developed in his research group in the last 7 years. 

Yulong Xu, a  master student from Jilin University joined our lab as a  research associate.

Xianya Wang, who was a research associate in SIOC joined our lab recently as a Ph. D student.

after two months of work, our lab is ready to use!

Welcome, 2018! Hope Everything Goes Well and Good Luck!
