Research Interest
Research Interests: His major interests are in the synthesis and study of main group sulfur and phosphorus heterocycles. Sulfur nitrogen [NS] and phosphorus sulfur [PS] compounds are under investigation with particular interest in the preparation of materials with interesting electrical properties and new organic reagents. Structural investigations are carried out using X-ray crystallography, infrared/Raman and multielement nuclear magnetic resonance [NMR]. Currently, his work is particularly concerned with the preparation of metal complexes containing simple NS and PS ligands, and in the synthesis of simple organophosphorus sulfides.
