Research interests
We are interested in all aspects of coordination,
organometallic and metallo-supramolecular chemistry with
a particular emphasis upon the synthesis of cavity-shaped
ligands and their use in organometallic catalysis and
green chemistry. Much of our work relies on macrocyclic
molecules, such as calixarenes, resorcinarenes, and
cyclodextrins. The latter may be used as receptors or
serve as platforms for the construction of
multifunctional podands. If you wish to have a detailed
