Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Matthias C. McIntosh's research focuses on organic synthesis, particularly the development of new synthetic methodologies and their application in the construction of complex organic molecules. His work has explored various catalytic reactions, including palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions and tandem catalyzed cyclizations for the synthesis of furan and butenolide compounds. He has also investigated rearrangements such as the Ireland and Claisen rearrangements, and developed methods for amide oxidation and Mitsunobu reactions. McIntosh has contributed to the total synthesis of natural products, including approaches to conduritols, cyclitols, and diterpenes like Cladiell-11-ene-3,6,7-triol. His research has been documented in numerous publications, and his scholarly contributions are reflected in an h-index of 19 and over 1,200 citations.
