Ragogna Research Group

At the root of all of our work lies fundamental main group chemistry.  This means we think about new structure and bonding for the p-block elements, unprecedented reaction chemistry and ways to bring these ideas to the broader chemical and scientific community.  We currently have several areas of active research.  

• Synthesizing strange molecules featuring the group 15 and 16 elements.
• Utilizing E-H bonds in the creation of novel photopolymer networks.
• Synthesis and self assembly of metal containing polymers.
• Surface modification utilizing phosphonium salt chemistry.
