Welcome to the Barta Group Website

Research in the Barta Group focuses on sustainability and green chemistry with an emphasis on the conversion of renewable resources and catalysis with earth-abundant metals.

Our vision is to revolutionize the use and functionalization of natural resources and waste streams to achieve control over reactivity, selectivity, material properties and recycling.


We are based in the Organic and Bioorganic Chemistry department of the University of Graz in the beautiful city of Graz in Austria.
