R. J. Lancashire
Teaching and Research Interests
  1. As webmaster of the Chemistry Department website, a considerable amount of time is devoted to developing and maintaining the site. Of general interest are the prospects of teaching chemistry via the World Wide Web and the Internet, especially at Postgraduate level. Multimedia computer applications in chemistry. Use of JCAMP-DX file formats on the Web.
  2. Microwave Oven Reaction Enhanced (MORE) Chemistry.
  3. The coordination chemistry of transition metal ions, in particular with N-heterocycles, α-amino acids, diamines and macrocyclic ligands.
