Research Interests - Gerald Linti

Molecular main group chemistry with special regard to heavy group 13 metals (Al, Ga, In)

• Gallium clusters: Study of metal-rich, so-called "metalloidal" gallium clusters as bridge between molecules and the solid state.

• Gallium-silicon compounds

• Gallium-nitrogen and other gallium-pnicogen compounds

• Transition metal complexes and clusters with group 13 ligands:
  Catalytic activation of Ga-Ga and Ga-H bonds
  Design of supramolecular structures based on gallium-substituted ferrocenes

• Ring and cage chemistry of bismuth
