Research Interests

Economical outlays of organic reduction-oxidation reactions typically supplemented with costs of special reagents as well as purification and waste-treatment. However, it is known that such oxidants or reductants can be replaced by use of electrons directly from electrical current by performing reactions in electrochemical cell. Therefore, my current research interests are aimed toward development of new and more efficient protocols in organic and, particularly, electro-organic synthesis.
