Organometallic Chemistry

Our research is focused on organometallic chemistry, in particular the photochemistry and photophysics of organometallic compounds.

Another aspect of research within the group centres on the synthesis, photochemical properties and applications of porphyrins, in particular when tethered to metal carbonyl compounds.

Current projects include:

  1. Synthesis, photochemistry and photophysics of porphyrin tethered metal carbonyl compounds
  2. Organometallic compounds as model compounds for the hydrodesulphurisation process: a photochemical investigation
  3. The synthesis of compounds with non-linear optical properties
