The Neidig group is a physical-inorganic chemistry and catalysis research group at the University of Oxford. Our research focuses on non-precious metal catalysis in organic chemistry, with the long-term goal of elevating our understanding of iron- and cobalt-catalyzed organic transformations to the level currently available for palladium catalysis. Moreover, we are focused on detailed insight into the electronic structure and bonding in heavy element chemistry remains poorly developed despite the critical role of actinide and lanthanide compounds in environmental, non-proliferation and energy issues.

We are excited to welcome Matilde, Eloise and Tamara to the group for their part II research projects. Excited to see all the wonderful chemistry you discover this year!!!
Always fun to collaborate with great inorganic groups like the Velian lab on iron chemistries... with Mössbauer of course! Congrats to Nathalia for all her efforts on this project.
Check out our latest work in collaboration with Lutz Ackerman and Joanna Wencel-Delord out in Nature Communications. Lots of fun sorting out the iron(0)-NHC catalyst involved in this chemistry.
Another fun and exciting collaboration with Guillaume Lefèvre. A special shout out to Alexis B. and Aleksa R. for their hard work on this project.
