Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Alkene

His primary areas of investigation include Organic chemistry, Catalysis, Aryl, Palladium and Medicinal chemistry. Catalysis and Combinatorial chemistry are commonly linked in his work. John F. Hartwig interconnects Halide, Ligand and Polymer chemistry in the investigation of issues within Aryl.

He works mostly in the field of Palladium, limiting it down to topics relating to Photochemistry and, in certain cases, Transition metal. His Medicinal chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ether, Steric effects, Stereochemistry, BINAP and Reaction mechanism. The study incorporates disciplines such as Alkylation and Allylic rearrangement in addition to Amination.

His most cited work include:

  • C−H Activation for the Construction of C−B Bonds (1615 citations)
  • Transition Metal Catalyzed Synthesis of Arylamines and Aryl Ethers from Aryl Halides and Triflates: Scope and Mechanism. (1339 citations)
  • Evolution of a fourth generation catalyst for the amination and thioetherification of aryl halides. (1185 citations)

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

John F. Hartwig mainly focuses on Catalysis, Medicinal chemistry, Organic chemistry, Aryl and Palladium. His work carried out in the field of Catalysis brings together such families of science as Combinatorial chemistry and Ligand. His Medicinal chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Regioselectivity, Steric effects, Alkyl, Oxidative addition and Reductive elimination.

His study on Organic chemistry is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Surface modification. The concepts of his Aryl study are interwoven with issues in Polymer chemistry, Halide, Reactivity, Stereochemistry and Phosphine. His research integrates issues of Photochemistry and BINAP in his study of Palladium.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Catalysis (68.32%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (46.93%)
  • Organic chemistry (46.39%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Catalysis (68.32%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (46.93%)
  • Organic chemistry (46.39%)

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

His main research concerns Catalysis, Medicinal chemistry, Organic chemistry, Aryl and Combinatorial chemistry. His is doing research in Silylation, Enantioselective synthesis, Palladium, Iridium and Regioselectivity, both of which are found in Catalysis. His Palladium research incorporates elements of Yield, Reductive elimination and Polymer chemistry.

His Medicinal chemistry study incorporates themes from Ligand, Intramolecular force, Borylation and Alkyl. His Aryl study which covers Reaction conditions that intersects with Trifluoromethyl. His work deals with themes such as Biocatalysis, Surface modification, Coupling reaction, Alkene and Reactivity, which intersect with Combinatorial chemistry.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evolution of C-H Bond Functionalization from Methane to Methodology. (341 citations)
  • Catalytic Silylation of Unactivated C-H Bonds. (300 citations)
  • Undirected, Homogeneous C-H Bond Functionalization: Challenges and Opportunities. (275 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Alkene

John F. Hartwig mostly deals with Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Aryl and Stereochemistry. His primary area of study in Catalysis is in the field of Regioselectivity. His research in Medicinal chemistry intersects with topics in Amination, Stereoisomerism, Sulfonamide, Selectivity and Intramolecular force.

John F. Hartwig has included themes like Yield, Denticity and Palladium in his Aryl study. His work focuses on many connections between Palladium and other disciplines, such as Reductive elimination, that overlap with his field of interest in Substituent. The Stereochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Iridium and Allylic rearrangement.
