WU Jie

WU Jie is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the National University of Singapore. He serves as Assistant Head (M.Sc. Programme and Enterprise) and holds the Dean’s Chair Professor position from 2023 to 2026. His research interests include photocatalysis, continuous-flow synthesis, and green chemistry. His profile page provides additional details about his work and contributions.

Wu Jie is a researcher at the National University of Singapore specializing in Organic Synthesis and Flow Synthesis. His work focuses on developing innovative methods for C−H bond functionalization using visible-light photocatalysis and hydrogen atom transfer reactions. He has explored the use of eosin Y and other photocatalysts to enable metal-free transformations, including difunctionalization of alkenes, defluoroborylation of polyfluoroarenes, and hydrosilylation of alkenes. His research also includes the synthesis of polycyclic quinoxaline derivatives and the application of photoredox catalysis for chemo- and regioselective reactions. Wu's work emphasizes sustainable and efficient synthetic strategies, particularly under continuous flow conditions.
