Prof. Dr. Andreas Hirsch

Research Focus Fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, porphyrins, dendrimers, calixarene and acetylene compounds Development of new synthesis methods for, e. g., chiral and amphiphilic functional units as well as for derivatized carbon-rich molecules Systematic research into the self-building of achiral and chiral supramolecular overstructures Calculation of molecular properties with quantum mechanical methods
