Research Interest
The group has a strong, experimental background in InOrganic, synthesis, organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis.
The group is currently working on the new research field of cooperative catalysis with redox non-innocent ligands, coordinated to cheap and earth-abundant first row transition metals.
