Our research

We search for new basic principles in organometallic chemistry and use them to develop catalysts and materials for our brighter future. Currently, we are studying organometallic chemistry and catalysis based on reversible cleavage of metal-metal bonds and unconventional organometallic chemistry of complexes with more than 18 formal electron counts.  

Molecules consisting of metallic and organic parts are known as organometallic molecules. These molecules have unique properties that the metallic or organic parts alone do not have. These properties are used to produce crucial compounds in human society, such as medicine and polymers, and are the basis of several Nobel prize discoveries including one in 2022.


Open positions

  • I have an opening of fully funded postdoc position, starting from January, 2025 or later. Please contact me if you are interested in studying organometallic chemistry and catalysis. (Posted September 30th, 2024)
  • I'm looking for postdocs with independent funding, such as JSPS and Canon fellowships. Those who are interested in organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis, please contact me for more details.
