MAIN GOAL:
Integrating scientists and collaborators at the Department of Chemistry into a unified research unit to enhance scientific excellence. The objective is linked to the programme indicator: the number of scientific papers published at the level of a public higher education institution or public research institute in scientific journals indexed in SCOPUS and WoS, A1 journals, and internationally peerreviewed conference proceedings.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:
- Introduce undergraduate and graduate students to scientific research work.
- Determine the molecular and crystal structure of new macrocyclic compounds.
- Investigate the extraction of metal cations using macrocyclic compounds.
- Determine the electrochemical properties of macrocyclic compounds.
- Determine the molecular structure of coordination compounds of transition metals with ligands from the hydroxy and benzopyranone group, with the addition of Ndonor ligands, using green chemistry methods.
- Investigate the biological properties of coordination compounds of transition metals with ligands from the hydroxy and benzopyranone group, with the addition of Ndonor ligands, using green chemistry methods.
- Establish a system for the precipitation of predominantly one hydrate phase of calcium oxalate (CaOx) under laboratory conditions.
- Investigate the influence of “ecological materials” on the precipitation of calcium oxalate (CaOx).
- Systematically monitor and conduct research in the field of air quality analysis.
- Improve understanding of atmospheric conditions and processes.
- Develop new catalysts and perform their structural and morphological characterization.
- Reduce the concentration of organic pollutants in wastewater.
