Introduction

https://wp.kmu.edu.tw/wylin/

Professor Wei-Yu Lin's research interests focus on the (i) Development of a new methodology for organic synthesis using a continuous flow system as a platform. The general concept is based on high-resolution time control using flow microreactors to enable chemical reactions that cannot be done in a batch condition. (ii) Metal-Catalyzed cyclization for the construction of heterocyclic derivatives, including the indoles, quinolines, quinazolinone and indazolone (iii) Selective for the C-N Bond activation by a simple method (iv) Biorthogonal approach for the in vivo imaging using a pretargeted oncologic positron emission tomography (PET) imaging that leverages the power of supramolecular nanoparticles with in vivo bioorthogonal chemistry was demonstrated to the clinically relevant problem of tumor imaging. The research result is summarized below:

Job Description

We wish to employing easily available CF3-ynones and 2-amino benzimidazole via

Sonochemistry reaction. We will establish a sustainable, solvent- and metal-free, atom-economic synthetic method for the efficient synthesis of CF3-substituted

benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives. This approach, which will produce

compounds with high functional group tolerance, utilizes a cascade reaction of

condensation followed by intramolecular cyclization.

Preferred Intern Education Level
