Welcome In The Rueck-Braun Group

Current Research Profile

 1. Organic Synthesis:
Synthesis of biologically active heterocyclic compounds and photochromic compounds including organometallic chemistry, catalysis and metal-mediated reaction cascades; solid phase synthesis; peptide chemistry; linker strategies; organic chemistry on semiconductor surfaces.

2. Application of Photochromic Compounds:
a. Photoswitchable biomolecules (peptides and proteins): light-modulation of the structure and function of biomolecules;
b. Photochromism of single molecules and ensembles on surfaces: design, synthesis and application.
