Chenyang Hu works in synthetic and organometallic chemistry, focusing on making and characterizing new metal-containing molecules, including reactive carbon species (carbenes) and metal complexes stabilized by special organic ligands. Much of the work uses metal catalysts to control chemical reactions such as adding hydrogen to alkynes, along with detailed X-ray crystal structure analysis. A separate line of work involves using layered metal hydroxide materials to break down lignin pollutants in water.
