Project I: Efforts towards the total synthesis of the biologically active natural product aigialomycin D.

Project II: Efficient and selective reduction protocols of the 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-benzodioxan-4-one functional group to readily provide both substituted salicylaldehydes and 2-hydroxy benzyl alcohols.

Project III: An Efficient 1,2-chelation controlled reductions of protected hydroxy ketones via Red-Al
