Welcome
Our group has changed directions! Prior to 2005, we did organometallic chemistry and catalyst discovery. For the last few years, we have been carving out a new home for ourselves in the area of fluorinated aromatic polymers, using the fluoroaromatic synthetic chemistry for which our group is primarily known.
