Heterogeneous catalysts, while being based on solid – often refractory – materials, are dynamic and multifaceted objects, making them challenging to study. To facilitate an understanding of such complicated systems, our group spends a significant amount of its time developing well-defined model-systems, starting with designing tailored molecular precursors and materials. One of the key methodologies used in our groups is surface organometallic chemistry which we use to generate well-defined active sites, from single–site to supported nanoparticles.
