Thien Nguyen

Newspaper Writer

“Thien Nguyen is a content writer focusing on scientific topics, especially those relating to chemical science.  He has recently published two books in advanced organic chemistry on the Amazon platform, namely (1) “Advanced synthesis of atropselective biaryls/heterobiaryls and axially chiral tetrasubstituted allenes” and (2) “Overview Of Ketone a-Alkylation.”

 

He obtained his Ph.D. at the University of Houston (USA) in 2017. He began his independent research career in Vietnam in 2018. He has singly authored several articles in the Journal of Molecular Structure, RSC Advances, Royal Society Open Science, Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry (OBC), and European Journal of Organic Chemistry (EJOC). 

 

Besides, he has served as a referee for Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry dealing mainly with the structure elucidation of natural products and their biosyntheses since 2019.  Thien Nguyen was recognized as an outstanding peer reviewer for Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry in 2020 and received Early Career Chemist Grant of Pacifichem in 2021. His research interests focusing on the main aspects of organic chemistry are (i) the isolation, the structure elucidation, and the synthesis of bioactive natural products for cancer treatment; (ii) the study of organic reaction mechanisms using computational methods; and (iii) the development of asymmetrically synthetic methods.”
