Biography
I conduct research in the Physical Organic Chemistry and Molecular Design Laboratory at Yokohama National University. My central theme is elucidating the origins of reaction selectivity through stereoelectronic-state informatics.
By integrating machine learning, computational chemistry, and physical organic chemistry, I aim both to predict organic reaction selectivity quantitatively and to interpret the steric and electronic factors behind it.
Research Interests
Stereoelectronic-state informaticsRepresenting and analyzing organic reaction selectivity using three-dimensional structure and electronic-state information.
Prediction and interpretation of reaction selectivityQuantifying steric and electronic contributions in nucleophilic additions and asymmetric ketone reductions.
Data-driven organic chemistryExtracting rules for reactivity and selectivity from experimental and computational data with machine-learning models.
