Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy at the University of Liverpool

Organic Synthesis and Catalysis

Research in the Organic Synthesis and Catalysis cluster spans studies on fundamental reactivity through to the provision of synthetic methods for fine chemical synthesis (e.g. pharmaceuticals), bulk chemical manufacture and materials chemistry. Members of the cluster engage with various UoL research centres and specialist facilities including the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy, the Surface Science Research Centre, the Materials Innovation Factory, the Centre of Excellence for Infectious Diseases Research, the MicroBioRefinery and GeneMill. External partners include major pharmaceutical, agrochemical, bulk chemical and materials chemistry companies, as well as the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine.
