Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Alkene

His main research concerns Organic chemistry, Catalysis, Enantioselective synthesis, Michael reaction and Stereochemistry. His studies in Bifunctional, Cinchona, Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, Mannich reaction and Nitro are all subfields of Organic chemistry research. The study incorporates disciplines such as Reactivity and Lactone in addition to Catalysis.

Darren J. Dixon has researched Enantioselective synthesis in several fields, including Malonate and Stereoisomerism. Darren J. Dixon combines subjects such as Total synthesis and Stereoselectivity with his study of Michael reaction. His Stereochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Stereocenter, Organocatalysis, Selectivity, Cascade reaction and Isomerization.

His most cited work include:

  • Enantioselective organocatalytic Michael addition of malonate esters to nitro olefins using bifunctional cinchonine derivatives (402 citations)
  • Enantioselective Brønsted Acid-Catalyzed N-Acyliminium Cyclization Cascades (280 citations)
  • Synthesis of macrocyclic natural products by catalyst-controlled stereoselective ring-closing metathesis (181 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Organic chemistry, Catalysis, Enantioselective synthesis, Stereochemistry and Combinatorial chemistry. His Organic chemistry research focuses on Nitro, Alkylation, Aldol reaction, Butane and Enantiopure drug. His research investigates the connection between Catalysis and topics such as Medicinal chemistry that intersect with problems in Lewis acids and bases.

Darren J. Dixon works mostly in the field of Enantioselective synthesis, limiting it down to topics relating to Michael reaction and, in certain cases, Moiety. His work carried out in the field of Stereochemistry brings together such families of science as Ring and Stereoselectivity. His study focuses on the intersection of Combinatorial chemistry and fields such as Reagent with connections in the field of Amide.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Organic chemistry (45.82%)
  • Catalysis (32.28%)
  • Enantioselective synthesis (31.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Catalysis (32.28%)
  • Combinatorial chemistry (19.02%)
  • Enantioselective synthesis (31.99%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Darren J. Dixon mainly focuses on Catalysis, Combinatorial chemistry, Enantioselective synthesis, Organic chemistry and Stereochemistry. His Catalysis research integrates issues from Medicinal chemistry, Alkyl and Amine gas treating. His research in Combinatorial chemistry intersects with topics in Reagent, Amide, Tertiary amine, Reactivity and Nucleophile.

His Enantioselective synthesis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bifunctional, Bicyclic molecule and Moiety. The various areas that he examines in his Bifunctional study include Superbase, Aryl and Michael reaction. In the subject of general Stereochemistry, his work in Total synthesis, Natural product and Radical cyclization is often linked to Cover and Staphylococcus aureus, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Thioamide-Directed Cobalt(III)-Catalyzed Selective Amidation of C(sp3 )-H Bonds. (60 citations)
  • Iridium‐Catalyzed Reductive Strecker Reaction for Late‐Stage Amide and Lactam Cyanation (55 citations)
  • Total Synthesis of (−)-Himalensine A (50 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Alkene

Darren J. Dixon mostly deals with Combinatorial chemistry, Organic chemistry, Enantioselective synthesis, Catalysis and Radical. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Reagent, Nucleophile and Coupling reaction. Darren J. Dixon regularly ties together related areas like Surface modification in his Organic chemistry studies.

His research integrates issues of Moiety, Stereochemistry, Radical cyclization and Enamine in his study of Enantioselective synthesis. Darren J. Dixon has included themes like Bifunctional, Thiol, Morphan, Strychnos and Michael reaction in his Moiety study. His work on Aryl expands to the thematically related Catalysis.
