🎓 Education Background

Dr. Tan earned his B.S. in Chemistry (2014), followed by his M.S. and Ph.D. (2019) at Sichuan University, under the supervision of Prof. Jingsong You, specializing in C–H activation. He then completed a prestigious postdoctoral fellowship (2019–2022) with Prof. Frank Glorius at the University of Münster, Germany, focusing on energy-transfer-enabled alkene/heteroarene difunctionalization, a frontier area in photoredox catalysis.

💼 Research and Academic Experience

Dr. Tan currently serves as Professor at Sichuan University, where he leads a research group exploring next-generation organic transformations. His postdoctoral research in Germany significantly advanced the use of light-driven and radical-based methodologies in complex molecule construction. His lab focuses on sustainable catalysis, with special attention to green synthetic approaches that avoid heavy metals and harsh conditions.

🔬 Research Interests

His research centers on organic synthesis, with particular expertise in C–H activation, visible-light photocatalysis, and electrochemical transformations. He has developed transition-metal-catalyzed oxidative couplings of (hetero)arenes to synthesize fluorescent materials for light-emitting applications. Furthermore, his design of oxime-ester-based bifunctional reagents has enabled metal-free processes such as 1,2-diamination, amino-carboxylation, and 1,4-oxyamination/carboamination of alkenes. These methods have opened eco-friendly routes to amino acids, amino alcohols, and diamines.

🧪 Technical Expertise

Dr. Tan’s technical skills include transition-metal catalysis, radical chemistry, photoredox catalysis, electrosynthesis, and the design of novel activation strategies. His approaches are known for their high selectivity, broad substrate scope, and green chemistry principles, making them valuable for both academic and industrial applications.
