Natural unsaturated compounds

Traditional ways of scientific research in the laboratory of natural unsaturated compounds of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia are the functionalization of unsaturated compounds in the presence of metal complexes, explanation of the mechanisms of the transformations, the targeted synthesis of natural compounds (pheromones, terpenes, hormones).  Among the compounds obtained in the laboratory, pheromones are distinguished by their use – environmentally means of protecting agricultural crops from pests. The development, improvement and implementation of new strategies for their synthesis are an alternative to the ecologically extremely hazardous chemical method of pest control. Based on the results of these studies, hundreds of scientific papers have been published, about 70 patents have been issued, 40 PhD and 4 doctoral theses have been defended. The laboratory was founded in 1968 and was headed by Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia Shaliko Badanyan until 2003. From 2003 to 2018, the laboratory was headed by Doctor of Chemical Sciences Zhora  Chobanyan, and from 2018 to the present – by PhD Hmayak  Sargsyan.

Head of laboratory – Sargsyan Hmayak Babken
