Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Catalysis

His scientific interests lie mostly in Stereochemistry, Fluorine, Biochemistry, Organic chemistry and Fluorinase. His Stereochemistry research incorporates themes from DNA and Amide. His research integrates issues of Crystallography, Substituent, Steric effects and Vicinal in his study of Fluorine.

His Stereoisomerism, Fluorine containing, Tropane and Trifluoromethyl study, which is part of a larger body of work in Organic chemistry, is frequently linked to Natural, bridging the gap between disciplines. The various areas that David O'Hagan examines in his Fluorinase study include SN2 reaction and Catalysis, Nucleophile. His research investigates the connection between Organofluorine chemistry and topics such as Dipole that intersect with problems in Reactivity, Hydrodefluorination and Lone pair.

His most cited work include:

  • Understanding organofluorine chemistry. An introduction to the C–F bond (1838 citations)
  • Pyrrole, pyrrolidine, pyridine, piperidine and tropane alkaloids (797 citations)
  • Fluorine in medicinal chemistry: A review of anti-cancer agents (777 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Biochemistry, Biosynthesis and Fluorine. His work in the fields of Tropane overlaps with other areas such as Tropic acid. His Organic chemistry study frequently involves adjacent topics like Polymer chemistry.

His research in Fluorine intersects with topics in Medicinal chemistry, Crystallography, Vicinal, Steric effects and Molecule. His studies in Crystallography integrate themes in fields like Dipole and Organofluorine chemistry. The Fluorinase study combines topics in areas such as Biotransformation and Deoxyadenosine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (42.43%)
  • Organic chemistry (25.81%)
  • Biochemistry (19.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Stereochemistry (42.43%)
  • Cyclohexane (4.47%)
  • Organic chemistry (25.81%)

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

David O'Hagan mainly investigates Stereochemistry, Cyclohexane, Organic chemistry, Fluorinase and Biochemistry. David O'Hagan has researched Stereochemistry in several fields, including Fluorine containing, Fluorine, Aryl and Hydrogen bond. His Fluorine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydrogen and Trifluoromethyl.

His Organic chemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Combinatorial chemistry and Monolayer. His study in the field of Metabolism, Biosynthesis and In vitro also crosses realms of Tumor necrosis factor alpha. In his study, Organofluorine chemistry, Dipole, Melting point, Molecule and Alkyl is strongly linked to Crystallography, which falls under the umbrella field of Ring.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Successful fluorine-containing herbicide agrochemicals (317 citations)
  • Enzymatic fluorination and biotechnological developments of the fluorinase. (154 citations)
  • Identification of fluorinases from Streptomyces sp MA37, Norcardia brasiliensis, and Actinoplanes sp N902-109 by genome mining. (75 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Catalysis

His main research concerns Organic chemistry, Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Fluorinase and Crystallography. As a part of the same scientific study, David O'Hagan usually deals with the Organic chemistry, concentrating on Combinatorial chemistry and frequently concerns with Stereoselectivity, Thioether, Substrate, Lewis acids and bases and Thioester. A large part of his Stereochemistry studies is devoted to Affinities.

His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Streptomyces and Bacteria. His work in Crystallography covers topics such as Cyclohexane conformation which are related to areas like Cyclohexane. His work carried out in the field of Fluorine brings together such families of science as Trifluoromethyl, Lipophilicity, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Organofluorine compounds.
