About
Marc L. Snapper is a Professor of Chemistry at Boston College, affiliated with the Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences. He holds a B.S. from Union College and a Ph.D. from Stanford University. His research focuses on developing new chemical transformations, synthesizing complex molecules, and applying these to study cellular function. Key areas include medium-ring-containing compounds, catalytic solutions for longstanding chemical problems, and tandem metathesis reactions.
- Research Interests: Organic synthesis, catalysis, asymmetric methodologies, natural product synthesis, and reaction mechanism exploration.
- Awards: Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award (1998), Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship (1998), Glaxo Wellcome Chemistry Scholar Award (1998).
- Lab Focus: Design of innovative reactions, functional group manipulations, and applications in drug discovery.
His work emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches, combining organic synthesis with computational studies and biological applications.
