Research in the Cronin Group is motivated by the fascination for complex chemical systems, and the desire to construct complex functional molecular architectures that are not based on biologically derived building blocks.
A news article in Chemistry World has highlighted the recent work of the Cronin Group in development of a self-optimising flow system using NMR. The article describes the feedback and real-time adjustment of the system as being a “key requirement in the concept of dial-a-molecule synthesis” and states that thanks to this research, flow reactors are “edging towards self-regulation”.
