Araştırma Alanları

• Organic Chemistry: Synthesis and structure elucidation (IR, 1H-NMR, Mass) of natural products such as Aspidosperma Type Alkaloids which have powerful central nervous system stimulants and biological active compounds.
• Computational Organic Chemistry: Investigation of structures and molecular interactions of organic compounds by using theoretical approaches and quantum chemical descriptors. Theoretical investigation on chemical and biochemical activities of biological active compounds by using various programs like Hyper Chem 7.5, Spartan 04, Gaussian 03, Arguslab, Molsoft ICM-Pro, ADF and Accelrys Discovery Studio 2.0/2.1.
• Computational Drug Design Methods: which include biological activities of the heterocyclic compounds by using analysis of quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) and/or molecular modeling field using the pharmacophore-based design (CoMFA, CoMSIA) and/or structure-based design methods and/or Docking.
