Research in the Thomas Group |
|
OVERVIEW
Although research within the group involves synthetic organic and coordination chemistry, we are more interested in studying the physical or biophysical properties of the compounds we make. Virtually all these studies are carried out in Sheffield. This means that researchers in the Thomas lab can gain hands-on experience in a wide range of cutting edge methods and techniques, from very high-field NMR and spectroelectrochemistry to isothermal calorimetry and surface plasmon resonance studies. Overlapping areas of research currently underway within the group include:
1. Thiacrown complexes of Ru(II) metal centres.
2. Metal-templated self-assembly.
3. Luminescent DNA binding probes.
