Description of research activity:

Structural and property studies of solid state molecular materials. Research on unconventional interactions in organic and metal-organic molecular crystals (agostic interactions, weak hydrogen bonds, halogen bonds, pnictogen, chalcogen and tetrel interactions, interactions in aromatic heterocyclics, pi interactions). Studies on the influence of weak interactions on molecular conformation and supramolecular self-assembly in the solid state. Design and description of new structural patterns of molecular recognition in crystalline species (supramolecular synthons, design and prediction of solid state behaviour). Description and design of organometallic structures as potential catalysts in the activation of C-H and C-C bonds. Description and design of metal-organic structures with potential magnetic properties based on structural patterns involving weak interactions.
