PhD - Since April 2024
Previous: MPhil at the University of Manchester; BSc at the University of British Columbia
Current: PhD student - Samarium(II) diiodide catalysis.
Funding: Self-funded
Publication: J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2024, 146, 18, 12799-12807, Org. Biomol. Chem., 2020, 18, 3638, J. Org. Chem., 2021, 21, 14844-14854.
Biography: I was born in Sichuan, China. I obtained my undergraduate degree at University of British Columbia in Canada. In 2021, I joined Prof. Martin Tanner’s lab and performed the full-synthesis of an inhibitor of Isopentenyl Diphosphate Isomerase. In 2022, I joined the Procter group at University of Manchester as a MPhil student, focusing Sm-catalyzed [3+2] cyclization by radical relay. In 2024, I rejoined the Procter group and continue focusing on samarium(II) diiodide catalysis chemistry for my PhD. In my free time, I enjoy anime and games.
