Koji Miki, Associate Professor

The Fundamental Hydrocarbon Chemistry Lab works on methods for synthesizing heterocyclic compounds using transition metal complexes as catalysts, and on creating complexes with bent alkyne ligands. The lab also develops functional molecules for medicine, including molecular machines that deliver drugs only to cells exposed to light, molecular probes that track enzyme activity and pH changes inside cells, and contrast agents for cancer.

The Advanced Biomedical Engineering Lab (Kondo Lab) designs and synthesizes molecular probes that combine the ability to accumulate at specific disease sites such as cancer with the ability to generate the signals needed for imaging, in order to enable early detection of disease and improve diagnostic accuracy. The lab carries out the full research sequence, through to evaluating function and efficacy in cell and animal experiments, and also works on organometallic chemistry centered on ruthenium complex catalysts.

The Catalytic Organic Chemistry Lab (Fujihara Lab) uses transition metal complex catalysts to develop a variety of organic synthesis reactions that use carbon dioxide as a carbon source. The lab also aims to pioneer new catalytic reactions that form the basis of chemical transformation and the development of new materials, to develop catalytic reactions with higher efficiency and selectivity than existing reactions, and to improve catalyst function by modifying the periphery of ligands.
Masaharu Nakamura, Professor

The Organic Molecular Transformation Lab (Nakamura Lab) develops efficient and sustainable synthetic reactions under the keyword "advanced utilization of underused chemical resources." Using metal elements that are abundant in the Earth's crust and found everywhere on the planet as catalysts, the lab synthesizes useful, highly functional molecules through practical synthetic reactions with a low environmental impact.
Yasujiro Murata, Professor

The Structural Organic Chemistry Lab (Murata Lab) designs and synthesizes molecules whose structures are expected to yield new properties, closely investigates their structures and properties, and feeds theoretical interpretations back into the design of new molecules. Through this research cycle, the lab creates materials with properties never seen before. Targeting molecules with new π-conjugated structures, the lab develops functional organic materials from the perspectives of structural organic chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and main-group element chemistry.

The Isotope Utilization Chemistry research group belongs to the Division of Particle Beam Fundamental Properties at the Institute for Integrated Radiation and Nuclear Science. The lab studies the chemical properties of the elements at the end of the actinide series and of the transactinide elements beyond them.
Aiko Fukazawa, Professor

The Organic Functional Chemistry Lab (Fukazawa Lab) aims to create organic materials with excellent optical and electronic functions, and conducts comprehensive research from molecular design to the development of synthetic methods and the elucidation of physical properties. The lab designs and synthesizes, from its own original ideas, new π-conjugated molecules with unusual structures and modes of electronic conjugation. It then feeds their properties and functions back into the rational molecular design of photofunctional materials, aiming to advance fundamental organic chemistry and materials science.
Hirofumi Sato, Professor

The Quantum Theoretical Chemistry Lab develops and extends its own highly general molecular theories, aiming to establish a universal understanding of processes and chemical phenomena involving molecules. Even if individual molecules can be understood through quantum chemistry, collective properties emerge when countless molecules come together. With a comprehensive perspective that takes the hierarchical structure of nature into view, the lab works to understand chemical phenomena.
Kentaro Teramura, Professor

The Catalytic Reaction Chemistry Lab (Teramura Lab) aims to reduce environmental impact and realize a circular society, guided by precise design at the molecular and nano levels based on a deep understanding of reaction mechanisms. The lab works on developing next-generation catalysts, electrocatalysts, and photocatalysts and on building catalytic chemical processes, following the principle of 'no applied research without an understanding of fundamental properties.'
Hiroshi Imahori, Professor
0 student voices
The Photoorganic Chemistry Lab (Imahori Lab) works on building artificial photosynthesis systems using organic materials, creating nanocarbon composite materials and elucidating their optical and electronic functions, and developing new π-conjugated compounds that make use of heteroatoms. The lab also studies the mechanisms of light-induced charge separation and develops dyes and materials for dye-sensitized solar cells and organic thin-film solar cells.
