Aimed at graduate students and experienced chemists, in both academic and industrial laboratories, this book covers the Morita-Baylis-Hillman-type reactions.
I am currently a professor of organic chemistry in the State Key Lab. of Organometallic Chemistry, Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry (SIOC), Chinese Academy of Sciences, where I have been for ten years. My research focuses on the organic synthesis, asymmetric catalysis, organocatalysis, and chemical fixation of CO2. With my twenty years research experiences in these fields, I have a broad body of knowledge in organic chemistry and organometallics and I am familiar with the frontier work in these areas. My research work was published on the most prestigious journals in the world, such as Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Chem. Eur. J., Adv. Synth. & Catal., etc. Thus far, I have published 312 regular papers in above journals. I am also a regularly invited reviewer to evaluate submitted scientific papers for multiple journals. In my research career, I have accomplished several significant jobs on aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction. Please see the following references.
Feijun Wang was born in Shangyu, Zhejiang Province, People's Republic of China, in 1978. He received his B.Sc. degree in 2001 and his M.Sc. degree in 2004 form China University of Mining and Technology. After obtaining his Ph.D degree in the field of synthesis of novel oxazoline ligands with a biphenyl backbone and their applications in asymmetric catalysis in 2007 from School of Chemistry and Chemical Technology, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, he joined the group of Professor Min Shi. His research program is focused on the development of novel rotation restricted ligands and their applications in asymmetric catalysis.
