Biography
"Case Western Reserve University, Ph.D., 1986. Postdoctoral Associate: Syracuse University (Thermal Pericyclic Reactions) University of Southern California (Carbocations and Synthetic Organofluorine Chemistry)"
Research Interest
Our research interests are diverse and interdisciplinary, ranging from carbocation reaction mechanisms to organofluorine chemistry, environmentally benign ("green") chemistry, protein modifications and asymmetric Friedel-Crafts reactions. This can be applied to drug design, understanding mechanisms of the aging process, and environmentally safe destruction of surplus chemical warfare agent stockpiles and other hazardous chemical materials.
