Professor Jack Clegg

Professor Jack Clegg is a professor in the School of Chemistry and Molecular Biosciences at The University of Queensland. His research interests include chemical characterisation of materials, coordination inorganic materials, nanotechnology, organic structural chemistry and spectroscopy, synthesis of materials, and transition metal chemistry. He is affiliated with the Nanotechnology & Materials Chemistry group and contributes to the department's research activities.

Jack Kay Clegg is a researcher at The University of Queensland, specializing in the design and synthesis of self-assembled molecular systems with tailored guest-binding properties. His work explores the structural and functional behavior of metal-organic capsules, anion-binding systems, and stimuli-responsive molecular architectures. Clegg's research focuses on understanding how molecular interactions influence the formation of supramolecular assemblies and their applications in materials science and chemical sensing. His publications highlight the synthesis of complex metallo-supramolecular frameworks, the encapsulation of guest molecules, and the reactivity modulation in container molecules. His studies also investigate the mechanical and thermal responses of molecular crystals, emphasizing the role of elastic flexibility in structural transformations.
