Methods developed in our group are applied to the enantioselective synthesis of natural products.  Mahesh Pallerla recently completed the first enantioselective synthesis of (–)-pentalenene.  Max Royzen recently completed the enantioselective synthesis of hyacinthacine (to be published soon).  A number of other targets are under active investigation.
