Welcome to the Wright group website
Introduction
Our research covers a wide range of topics, but general underlying themes are transition metal chemistry and green chemistry. In our research we synthesise and study new compounds that display a broad diversity of reactivities, structures and bonding types. In some cases, such as our studies of metallabenzenes and inorganometallic chemistry, we investigate the fundamental properties of materials with unprecedented structures, bonding types or reactivities. In other cases our research is more practically orientated, as in the development and study of new catalysts for simple organic transformations and oxidation chemistry. The underlying concepts of green chemistry are used as the powerful guiding principles of our research in these areas.
