This project focuses on developing new catalysts to mimic natural processes for synthesizing terpenes, which are important for drug development. By utilizing supramolecular chemistry, the aim is to create selective catalysts that can produce novel terpene derivatives.
Nature is a rich source of biologically active molecules, among which the largest and most diverse group of natural products are terpenes.
Essential drugs like the cancer medication taxol/paclitaxel or the malaria drug artemisinin belong to the terpene family.
They are efficiently formed in nature through a so-called tail-to-head terpene cyclization.
Chemists are not able to mimic this process with man-made catalysts.
This proposal aims at closing this significant research gap by utilizing supra…
