Dehaen Wim

The Dehaen research groups has in the past years mainly been concerned with synthetic methodology in heterocyclic and medicinal chemistry, and in the synthesis and applications of different materials related to supramolecular chemistry, including macrocycles, electroactive materials and fluorescent dyes and sensors.
