New Publication in The Journal of Organic Chemistry!
The article describes the synthesis of various trisubstituted methanes (mostly thioethers) under catalyst-free conditions.
The Kucinski Lab is located in the Faculty of Chemistry at the Adam Mickiewicz University (Poznan, Poland). Our young group has an interest in developing innovative synthetic methodologies for applications across the organosilicon, organoboron, and organosulfur chemistries.

The project entitled “Synthesis of Organosilicon Compounds - From Classical Catalysis to Electrocatalysis” aims to develop novel and efficient synthetic methods, that will enable the selective construction of organosilicon derivatives, fully exploiting the enormous potential of the Earth-abundant 3d metal coordination compounds (Cu, Ni) and electrochemistry (electrosynthesis/electrocatalysis).

Born in Inowrocław, Krzysztof received his M.S. degree from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań (AMU) in 2014 under the supervision of Prof. dr. Bogdan Marciniec. His Ph.D. work was done at the same institution under the direction of Prof. dr. Grzegorz Hreczycho. Krzysztof Kuciński has been an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry and Technology of Silicon Compounds at AMU since March 2019.
In 2020, he moved to Germany for a postdoctoral fellowship with Prof. dr. Lutz Ackermann. In 2021, he returned and began the project entitled “Synthesis of Organosilicon Compounds - From Classical Catalysis to Electrocatalysis”. His main research interests include organoboron, organosilicon, and organosulfur chemistry with a strong emphasis on the sustainability of the processes.
