Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Gene

His main research concerns Total synthesis, Organic chemistry, Catalysis, Stereochemistry and Chemical synthesis. Zhen Yang interconnects Stereocenter, Nanotechnology, Ring, Radiochemistry and Natural product in the investigation of issues within Total synthesis. His Catalysis study incorporates themes from Combinatorial chemistry, Flavones and Medicinal chemistry.

Zhen Yang has included themes like Reagent and Stereoselectivity in his Combinatorial chemistry study. His Stereochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Formylation and Phenol. His Chemical synthesis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ketone, Convergent synthesis and Sonogashira coupling.

His most cited work include:

  • Total synthesis of taxol (812 citations)
  • Organopalladium(IV) chemistry (526 citations)
  • Synthesis of epothilones A and B in solid and solution phase (348 citations)

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

Zhen Yang mostly deals with Stereochemistry, Total synthesis, Catalysis, Organic chemistry and Intramolecular force. His Stereochemistry research focuses on subjects like Stereoselectivity, which are linked to Moiety. His study in Total synthesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Diels–Alder reaction, Natural product, Chemical synthesis and Stereocenter.

His Catalysis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Combinatorial chemistry, Aryl, Thiourea and Medicinal chemistry. His research in Combinatorial chemistry intersects with topics in Cascade reaction and Annulation. His work on Pauson–Khand reaction as part of general Intramolecular force study is frequently linked to Tandem, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:
