Summary of research

We intend to keep a balance between fundamental and applied research, with an emphasis in homogeneous, heterogeneous catalysis and green chemistry. In future, we would like to develop novel homo and heterogeneous photo/electrocatalysts for the utilisation of small molecules such as CH₄, CO₂, O₂, N₂O in organic synthesis as well as for the synthesis of fuel-related molecules. Our focus is to provide selective transformation in organic synthesis by attaining regioselectivity, enantioselectivity, and chemoselectivity and by this way, we would like to achieve the synthesis of large molecules in shorter steps.

​Key topics are:​

​

• Catalysis and organic synthesis
  ​
• Sustainable Chemistry route
  
  
• Development of novel synthetic methodologies

• Homogeneous catalysis

• Heterogeneous catalysis

• Systainable Synthetic route

• Depolymerisation of plastics

• Photodynamic therapy

• Value added small molecule synthesis

• Late-stage organic synthesis
