Harnessing Energy of Ring-Strain, Photon & Electricity for Synthesis.
Pioneering novel reaction paradigms through light and electrical activation. We leverage strained rings, diazo compounds, metal-carbenes, and electrosynthesis to build high-value molecules.
About Us.
Led by Principal Investigator Durga Prasad Hari, The Hari Group is a dynamic and collaborative team of research associates alongside graduate, master’s, and undergraduate students. The group's research focuses on pioneering mild, sustainable reaction paradigms that provide strategic access to versatile reactive intermediates, specifically leveraging the unique reactivity of strained systems and carbene intermediates activated by light and electricity to construct valuable molecular architectures.
