Lisa Brierley
A Dendritically Solubilised Dye

Project Overview

Lisa (B.Sc – York) worked alongside Graham Dykes in developing dendritic branches as systems for the supramolecular solubilisation of dyes. Her research helped to show that amine-acid interactions were of general usefulness in constructing supramolecular dendrimers, and that the template dye could have its properties dramatically modified – research with potential applications in dye formulation for printing processes. Her research led to a publication in Chem. Eur. J.
