Dr. Nan Jiang discovered 1,2 aryl migration in Rh(II)-mediated reaction of diazo compounds. He also developed new reaction conditions for the nucleophilic condensation of the diazo compounds with aldehydes, ketones, and imines. Dr. Jiang has left for Tulane University to join Professor Chaojun Li's group as postdoctoral fellow.
