  • The genetic algorithm : Foundations and applications in structure solution from powder diffraction data (165 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Benson M. Kariuki spends much of his time researching Crystal structure, Crystallography, Stereochemistry, Medicinal chemistry and Hydrogen bond. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Crystal structure, Polymer chemistry and Carboxylate is strongly linked to Inorganic chemistry. He combines subjects such as X-ray crystallography, Diffraction and Molecule with his study of Crystallography.

His Stereochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ligand and Stereoselectivity. His Medicinal chemistry research integrates issues from Organic chemistry and Carbene. His Hydrogen bond research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pyridine and Bioinformatics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Crystal structure (41.96%)
  • Crystallography (36.52%)
  • Stereochemistry (24.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Crystal structure (41.96%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (22.39%)
  • Crystallography (36.52%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Crystal structure, Medicinal chemistry, Crystallography, Hydrogen bond and 1,2,3-Triazole. His work carried out in the field of Crystal structure brings together such families of science as Dihedral angle, Ring, Pyrazole, Thiazole and Crystal. His research in Medicinal chemistry intersects with topics in Triazole, Triclinic crystal system, Dimethylformamide and Monoclinic crystal system.

His work in Crystallography tackles topics such as Stacking which are related to areas like Oxadiazole. His studies deal with areas such as Acceptor and Solvent as well as Hydrogen bond. The various areas that Benson M. Kariuki examines in his 1,2,3-Triazole study include Ethanol, Yield, Thiophene, Carboxylate and Hydrate.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Efficient Electrosynthesis of Thiazolidin‐2‐imines via Oxysulfurization of Thiourea‐Tethered Terminal Alkenes Using the Flow Microreactor (14 citations)
  • Imidodiphosphonate Ligands for Enhanced Sensitization and Shielding of Visible and Near-Infrared Lanthanides. (8 citations)
  • Aluminium-catalysed isocyanate trimerization, enhanced by exploiting a dynamic coordination sphere. (7 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Oxygen

His primary scientific interests are in Crystal structure, Medicinal chemistry, Crystallography, 1,2,3-Triazole and Thiazole. Particularly relevant to Isostructural is his body of work in Crystal structure. His Medicinal chemistry study incorporates themes from Stacking and Dimethylformamide.

His work on Crystal system as part of his general Crystallography study is frequently connected to Trimesic acid, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His 1,2,3-Triazole research incorporates elements of Carbohydrazide, Hydrate and Hydrogen bond. His Dihedral angle study deals with Fluorescence intersecting with Molecule.
