His primary areas of investigation include Total synthesis, Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Combinatorial chemistry and Chemical synthesis. The various areas that he examines in his Total synthesis study include Biochemical engineering, Natural product, Cascade and Stereoselectivity. His Stereochemistry study incorporates themes from Molecule and Ring.
His study on Reagent, Organic synthesis, Catalysis and Samarium is often connected to Extramural as part of broader study in Organic chemistry. His Combinatorial chemistry research incorporates themes from Amino acid, Chemical biology, Vancomycin and Antibiotics. Chemical synthesis is the subject of his research, which falls under Biochemistry.
His primary areas of study are Stereochemistry, Total synthesis, Organic chemistry, Combinatorial chemistry and Ring. His study in Stereochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecule, Enantioselective synthesis and Stereoselectivity. He combines subjects such as Cycloaddition, Antibiotics, Chemical synthesis and Organic synthesis with his study of Total synthesis.
Specifically, his work in Combinatorial chemistry is concerned with the study of Epothilones.
His primary areas of investigation include Stereochemistry, Total synthesis, Combinatorial chemistry, Organic chemistry and Molecule. In Stereochemistry, Kyriacos C. Nicolaou works on issues like Ring, which are connected to Intramolecular force. His Total synthesis study combines topics in areas such as Absolute configuration, Nanotechnology, Enantioselective synthesis, Biological evaluation and Chemical synthesis.
Combinatorial chemistry is closely attributed to Design synthesis in his research. Kyriacos C. Nicolaou is studying Catalysis, which is a component of Organic chemistry. His Molecule study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Platensimycin.
Kyriacos C. Nicolaou mostly deals with Total synthesis, Stereochemistry, Combinatorial chemistry, Stereoisomerism and Molecule. His Total synthesis study contributes to a more complete understanding of Organic chemistry. His Stereochemistry research incorporates elements of Stereocenter, Structural motif, Structure–activity relationship and Ring.
Kyriacos C. Nicolaou has researched Combinatorial chemistry in several fields, including Xanthone, Biological evaluation, Drug discovery and Diketopiperazines. His research in Molecule intersects with topics in Platensimycin and Epoxide. His work in Chemical synthesis tackles topics such as Drug development which are related to areas like Design synthesis, Enediyne and Annulation.
