Welcome! We are a synthetic organic chemistry group based at the Research School of Chemistry at the Australian National University, Canberra.
Our research focuses on organic synthetic methodology development, designing new forms of catalysis for synthesis, use of modern electrosynthetic methods and the exploiting reactivity in organic chemistry to advance the field of NMR hyperpolarisation.
Understanding and applying new forms of chemical reactivity in organic synthesis
Using electrical potential to make bonds and build molecules more efficiently than conventional methods
Designing catalysts to activate parahydrogen and increase sensitivity in NMR spectroscopy
