معرفی
Josipa Suć Sajko is a Researcher at the Ruđer Bošković Institute within the Division of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, specifically in the Synthetic Methodologies in Organic Chemistry laboratory. Her work focuses on organic synthesis, particularly involving multicomponent reactions, peptidomimetics, and the design of functional materials like organogelators. She has contributed to the development of self-healing materials, enzyme inhibitors, and glycomimetic libraries.
Her research interests span synthetic organic chemistry, including the Ugi reaction, Passerini reaction, and asymmetric catalysis. She has explored applications in drug discovery, biomaterials, and biomolecular interactions, such as DNA/RNA binding by fluorescent peptides. Key areas include the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, hydrazino derivatives, and enzyme-targeted therapeutics.
Her publications demonstrate expertise in multicomponent synthesis, with notable contributions to γ-lactams, diazetidinones, and depsipeptides. She has also investigated anthrose-based biomimetic molecules and fluorophore-conjugated enzyme inhibitors.
No scientific awards are explicitly listed in the provided materials.
