Inorganic chemistry specialises in studies on the synthesis and behaviour of inorganic and organometallic compounds. Within the field of inorganic chemistry, there is a particular emphasis on the synthesis, chemical reactions, molecular structures and properties of new inorganic and organometallic compounds and analysing their application such as energy storage, sensing, catalysis, and anticancer and antibacterial agents. The development of new methodologies, which allows the synthesis of highly functionalised inorganic materials with predictable properties, is also important.
The research groups work on diverse projects in inorganic chemistry, but the main emphasis is on bioinorganic, organometallic, and supramolecular chemistry and their application in catalysis and medicinal chemistry.
