Ashland University

What you'll study

Study is research-dominant and driven by faculty expertise. Topics reflected in the supervisor’s work include:

• Synthetic inorganic and organometallic chemistry — design and preparation of metal complexes.
• Bioinorganic chemistry — applying inorganic chemistry concepts to biologically relevant systems.
• Phosphazene chemistry — synthesis and investigation of phosphazene compounds.
• Imidazole and N‑heterocyclic carbene (NHC) chemistry — development and application of imidazolium salts and metal‑NHC complexes.
• Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy — use of NMR as a primary analytical tool in structure and mechanism studies.
