Supramolecular Chemistry

Anion Recognition and Transport

The Gale Group operates in the sphere of supramolecular chemistry, where we exploit reversible interactions that can form between suitable small molecules and negatively charged species.

Anions are extremely prevalent in the industrial environment, while also playing key roles biologically in many homeostatic processes.

We focus on using small organic molecules synthesised in our laboratory to complex anions and control their movement across cell membranes, with future application in the treatment of disease. Additionally, we design systems capable of sensing and extracting anions from contaminated sources.
