Welcome to Organic Chemistry!
Organic Chemistry, is a division of the Department of Chemistry (KILU) at Lund University, located at Kemicentrum. We are engaged in teaching undergraduate courses in general, inorganic, organic, medicinal, environmental and computational chemistry, as well as toxicology and structural analysis.

News
Wiki server
We now have a wiki server running. We can use it to make personal pages, to make information available within the department, and as a tool in teaching. Currently there are three wikis running
- People at organic chemistry
- Here you can add and edit your own personal pages. This wiki is open for anyone to read, but requires login for editing. Login as organic, the password is our default one.
- The Organic Chemistry Wiki
- A wiki for our internal use. Login as organic, the password is our default one.
- A course wiki for koka10
- The students have a separate login, but you may login as organic, the password is our default one.
Research
Research at Organic Chemistry involves:
- green chemistry
- chemical biology: small organic molecules as tools in life sciences with special emphasis on constituents of fungi and medicinal plants, DNA recognition, tubulin-modulating molecules, and glycobiology
- synthetic method development with special emphasis on asymmetric synthesis and ligand construction
- synthesis of natural products and derivatives
- self-assembly and supramolecular catalysis
- host-guest phenomena of synthetic receptors
- organometallic chemistry of the transition metals with an emphasis on activation of small molecules and unreactive bonds
- bioorganic stereochemistry
- computational modeling and design of novel biologically active compounds
