Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Catalysis

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Catalysis, Stereochemistry, Photochemistry, Enantioselective synthesis and Ruthenium. Eric Meggers studies Homogeneous catalysis which is a part of Catalysis. His Stereochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Octahedron, Molecular recognition, Ligand, Base pair and Metal.

In the field of Photochemistry, his study on Electron transfer overlaps with subjects such as Visible spectrum. His Enantioselective synthesis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Rhodium, Iridium and Chirality. His work deals with themes such as Chemical biology, Molecule, Stereoisomerism and Protein kinase A, which intersect with Ruthenium.

His most cited work include:

  • Sequence Dependent Long Range Hole Transport in DNA (455 citations)
  • Targeting proteins with metal complexes. (320 citations)
  • A Novel Copper-Mediated DNA Base Pair (311 citations)

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

Eric Meggers mostly deals with Catalysis, Enantioselective synthesis, Stereochemistry, Ruthenium and Combinatorial chemistry. His Catalysis study deals with the bigger picture of Organic chemistry. His study in Enantioselective synthesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ligand, Photochemistry, Chirality and Medicinal chemistry.

His research integrates issues of Coordination complex, Metal and Ligand in his study of Stereochemistry. Eric Meggers has researched Ruthenium in several fields, including Denticity, Moiety, GSK-3 and Protein kinase A. Eric Meggers has included themes like Chemical biology and Transition metal in his Combinatorial chemistry study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Catalysis (64.74%)
  • Enantioselective synthesis (59.54%)
  • Stereochemistry (40.75%)

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

  • Catalysis (64.74%)
  • Enantioselective synthesis (59.54%)
  • Rhodium (23.99%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Catalysis, Enantioselective synthesis, Rhodium, Combinatorial chemistry and Organic chemistry. His Catalysis research incorporates themes from Photochemistry and Polymer chemistry. His Enantioselective synthesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Amination, Chirality, Medicinal chemistry and Ruthenium.

The Rhodium study combines topics in areas such as Enantiomeric excess, Crystallography, Substrate, Asymmetric induction and Enantiomer. His Combinatorial chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Photoredox catalysis and Ligand. His work on Transfer hydrogenation is typically connected to Visible spectrum as part of general Organic chemistry study, connecting several disciplines of science.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Steering Asymmetric Lewis Acid Catalysis Exclusively with Octahedral Metal-Centered Chirality. (105 citations)
  • Direct Visible-Light-Excited Asymmetric Lewis Acid Catalysis of Intermolecular [2+2] Photocycloadditions. (71 citations)
  • Asymmetric Photocatalysis with Bis-cyclometalated Rhodium Complexes (49 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Catalysis

Eric Meggers focuses on Catalysis, Enantioselective synthesis, Combinatorial chemistry, Stereocenter and Lewis acid catalysis. His studies examine the connections between Catalysis and genetics, as well as such issues in Photochemistry, with regards to Lewis acids and bases. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Rhodium, Ruthenium catalyst, Photoredox catalysis and Chirality.

The concepts of his Chirality study are interwoven with issues in Iridium and Metal. His Combinatorial chemistry research includes elements of Heteroatom, Cycloaddition, Moiety and Ruthenium. His Organic chemistry research integrates issues from Surface modification and Medicinal chemistry.
