Research Interests
Patrick is exploring how the structure, and thus reactivity, of aminocarbenes can be controlled via the α-carbon substituent through a combination of synthetic and computational methods. In doing so, he hopes to uncover new approaches to salient challenges in catalysis and materials science.
