Research Area: The research in the group of Tang is focused on organic synthesis methodology and total synthesis of natural products, application of cycloaddition and cyclization strategy synthesis of natural products,and methodology research of stereo selectivity of ynamides and spiroketal. The group also extends efforts towards total synthesis of pre-drugs and drug molecules and investigation of their biological activities. The group cooperates with enterprises to investigate drug intermediates and pharmaceutical raw materials with potential market value.
