Giuseppe Resnati (born 26 August 1955) is an Italian chemist with interests in fluorine chemistry and supramolecular chemistry. He had a particular focus on self-assembly processes driven by halogen bonds.[2]
Education and professional positions
Resnati was born in Monza, Italy. He obtained his PhD in Industrial Chemistry at the University of Milan in 1988 with Prof. Carlo Scolastico and a thesis on asymmetric synthesis via chiral sulfoxides. After a period of activity at the Italian National Research Council, in 2001 he became professor of chemistry for materials at the Politecnico di Milano.
Research interests
His research interests cover/have covered the following topics:
- enantioselective synthesis of mono- and polyfluorinated compounds[3] and synthesis via perfluorinated reagents (perfluorinated oxaziridines as powerful yet selective oxidizing agents)[4]
- fluorinated contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging[5]
- intermolecular forces and their use in crystal engineering;[6] supramolecular chemistry,[7] Borromean rings,[8] and self-assembly processes[9] in the design and preparation of functional materials[10][11]
- halogen bond[12][13] and iodine chemistry.
- green chemistry
