Professor Melanie Sanford's research is at the interface of the fields of organic and inorganic chemistry. She is an expert in the development and mechanistic study of transition metal-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization reactions as well as in the study of high valent palladium and nickel intermediates relevant to these transformations. She has also developed new tandem catalytic processes for carbon dioxide reduction as well as important new catalytic fluorination reactions.
