New dyes for electron and energy transfer, Modular fluorescent tags and Lighting up sugars.

We develop homogeneous organometallic transition metal catalysts which utilise molecular cooperativity to improve catalytic efficiency and develop new processes

Our group studies transition metal catalysts using both magneto-optical spectroscopy and magnetic resonance techniques.

Research in the Hicks group focuses on the reactivity of earth abundant, non-toxic metals in regards to sustainable chemical synthesis.

Our work covers organometallic chemistry with a particular focus include unsaturated ligands involving metal–carbon multiple bonding.

Our research uses synthesis, spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and computational chemistry to generate new molecular materials with unusual optical properties.

The Preston group works on supramolecular systems in solution. We develop architectures from metal ions and organic ligands, and then explore their behaviour.

Our research program involves the design of sequences of cycloaddition reactions, free radical reactions and transition metal-mediated reactions

Our research focuses on supramolecular chemistry – the chemistry of non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, halogen bonding and coordination bonds.
