Career Trajectory
Bio
Prof. Kita has achieved the first total synthesis of such complex heterocyclic bioactive substances as Discorhabdins C and A, Fredericamycin A and r-Rubromycin. The Negishi and Suzuki cross coupling reactions forming carbon-carbon bonds became well known after the two Japanese chemists received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2010. In order to produce these reactions, however, it was necessary to coat chemical compounds with metal or halogen or to use a rare metal catalyst. Prof. Kita made these processes unnecessary with the use of an iodine reaction agent. His method, considered as a revolutionary cross coupling reaction, is capturing global attention because it allows not only conventional carbon-carbon cross couplings but also cross couplings of heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur which have been difficult to produce with traditional methods. And because Prof. Kita’s reaction does not require the use of rare or heavy metals, it has been acclaimed as safe and sustainable green chemistry.
