We are a research group deeply rooted in the study

of fluorinated organic compounds.

​

Why fluorine, of all atoms?

Easy. Fluorine has become vital to the development of

drugs, agrochemical agents and advanced materials.

​

What is the problem, then?

Greener and overall better chemical processes are needed to prepare organofluorine compounds or exploit them as synthetic intermediates.

​

How does the Hamel group contribute to this?

Our mission is to leverage catalysis as a strategic tool for the preparation and derivatization of organofluorine compounds through chemo-, regio- and enantioselective C–H, C–C and C–F bond scission.
