Bringing Organic and Inorganic Chemistry Together Reversibly Since 2016
THE YOUNG LAB AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TOLEDO
If you can smell what the Young Lab is cooking... Put it back in the fumehood!
Our research aims to understand the concepts and mechanisms which underly the complexities of science. We use advanced research techniques and technologies to explore and investigate the scientific hypotheses our Research Lab poses. Our research is generously supported by funding from the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, and the Herman Frasch Foundation.
RECENT PUBLICATIONS
July 11, 2024
Congrats to Kendra Shrestha, Michael Hilyard, and Indunil Alahakoon for their work on combining a supramolecular host with organocatalysis, thereby facilitating the Diels–Alder reaction of cinnamaldehydes.
July, 2024
Congrats to Kendra Shrestha for his contributions to a collaboration with the Karunarathna group at Saint Louis University. A new probe molecule, OptoIso, can be deprotected photolytically to give an active drug molecule which allows spatiotemporal control of the Adreneric G Protein-Coupled Receptors.
Nov. 16, 2023
Congrats to Dr. Landge and the rest of the team for their work on using ligands to tame catalyst aggregation, enabling the first selective example of C–H activation and functionalization of a unprotected allylamines. We appreciate our collaborators from the Karunarathne lab on demonstrating the µ-opioid receptor activity of our compounds.
