Welcome to the Delius Lab!

Our research activities are positioned at the interface of systems chemistry, supramolecular chemistry and the synthesis of functional organic materials. One unifying goal of our team is to achieve supramolecular control over important processes such as (dissipative) self-assembly, selective functionalization reactions, (auto)catalysis and charge transfer. A second unifying goal of the Delius research group is to expand the toolbox of systems and materials chemistry by developing original chemistry, wherever it is possible.

GDCH Suprachem Logo

In the wake of the SupraChem2024 Meeting in Ulm, Max von Delius assembled a Founding Team to support the creation of a supramolecular division within the German Chemical Society (GDCh). Over the course of 2025, this new “AG SupraChem” was launched and a first PhD Prize was advertised. Please consider joining AG SupraChem via the following link!
