Our research comprises studies of chiral discrimination in equilibria and reactions involving optically active compounds. Our experimental research tools include NMR spectroscopy, molecular modelling, chiral chromatography and chiroptical techniques, mainly polarimetry and circular dichroism spectroscopy. A recently started project aims at studies of the interaction between an achiral host and a chiral, non-chromophoric guest by means of fluorescence detected induced CD.
