The KKH Research Group |
|
Welcome to our webpage, where you can meet current/past members and find out about our research interests. The research projects pursued by our group are (mainly) in the field of homogeneous catalysis, at the interface of organic and inorganic chemistry. We are particularly interested in developing selective catalysts for C‑C or C‑X bond formations for organic synthesis.
