Professor Lyall R. Hanton (Head of Department) Coordination and metallosupramolecular chemistry

Research Intrest

We use a building block approach to synthesize metallosupramolecular networks. Using our expertise in transition metal coordination chemistry and ligand synthesis, we are building networks based on a variety of flexible thio-substituted oligopyridines as linkers between various metal ion connectors such as Ag(I), Cu(I) and Cu(II). One recent success has been the preparation of a mixed-valence netowrk of halide-bridged Cu(I) and Cu(II) centres. It is the first such network with strictly alternating Cu(I) and Cu(II) centres. We are currently investigating the magnetic properties of this new material.
