Mansell Research Home

Welcome to the website of the Mansell Research Group based at Heriot-Watt University. We develop new catalysts to make useful products more efficiently.

Our vision is to combine the best aspects of main group, transition metal chemistry and f-block chemistry in order to develop better homogeneous catalysts targeting important transformations, including acceptorless dehydrogenation and C-H functionalisation.
