Scientific specialization & research interest at UCT

I received vast training in organic synthesis and crystal engineering during the masters and doctoral studies in Kharkov. The synthetic schemes covered a broad range of transformation leading to N-heterocyclic derivatives synthesized either by “click” or by Hantzsch and Biginelli multicomponent reactions.

After relocation to Czechia (CZ), I have amalgamated my skills and background with the focus of the hosting laboratory focusing on photo- and organocatalysis, surface science and self-assembly. This crystallized into an original research topic for my doctoral work in CZ: rethinking the paradigm of the role of N-heterocycle forming reactions. Some reactions are generally perceived as yielding products (Hantzsch, Biginelli), while others are predestined to link chosen fragments (CuAAC click). However, this paradigm is purely artificial and the goal of my project is to develop methodologies to question it.

Type of collaborations I am looking for

I am interested in collaborating with universities and research groups working in the area of heterogeneous photo-organo-catalysis
