Organometallic chemistry and reaction mechanisms

We prepare inorganic complexes by traditional synthetic methods as well as using novel photochemical routes. In addition; we design, develop and implement nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods for the study of chemical processes including those that employ in situ photolysis whilst recoding NMR data. Our work therefore involves the study of catalysis and the synthesis of novel inorganic complexes which often include ligands that are enriched in NMR active nuclei such as 13C and 15N.
