About Us & Our Research
The Main-group and Organometallic Chemistry lab, headed by Prof. Priyabrata Ghana, is located at the chemistry department of IIT Gandhinagar. We are a young and dynamic research group primarily focusing on developing catalysts based on cheap and abundant Main-group and Transition metals for converting naturally abundant small molecules, such as N2, CO2, H2, etc., into value-added chemicals. This is crucial for the development of a sustainable future.
