  • Summary Statement of Research Interests

    Our interests are very broad and range from very basic studies to applied research of academic, Government or industrial interest. We are particularly interested in high energy density materials (HEDM), inorganic main group chemistry, polynitrogen and nitramine chemistry, high-oxygen carriers, energetic ionic liquids, chemistry at the limits of oxidation and coordination, the synthesis and characterization of novel carbocation and fluorocarbon compounds, and the development of quantitative scales for fundamental properties, such as Lewis acidity, oxidizer strength and the “nakedness” of fluoride ion sources. Our work exploits the synergism of theory and synthesis and greatly benefits from close collaborations with several groups of theoreticians. The main goal of our research is to advance the state of the art and strive for spectacular breakthroughs, rather than settling for small incremental improvements.
