  • Halogen bond (5.34%)
  • Organic chemistry (12.46%)

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

William T. Pennington spends much of his time researching Crystallography, Halogen bond, Organic chemistry, Molecule and Crystal structure. His Crystallography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cocrystal, Natural bond orbital, Stereochemistry and Triphenylphosphine. His study looks at the relationship between Stereochemistry and fields such as Tubulin, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

William T. Pennington has researched Halogen bond in several fields, including Polymorphism, Crystal engineering and Polymer chemistry. His Molecule research includes themes of Synthon, Iodine, Difluoride, Potassium and Ion. His research in Crystal structure focuses on subjects like Crystal, which are connected to Hydrogen bond.

Between 2006 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Complementary halogen and hydrogen bonding: sulfur...iodine interactions and thioamide ribbons. (54 citations)
  • Halogen Bonding with Dihalogens and Interhalogens (50 citations)
  • Complementary Selenium···Iodine Halogen Bonding and Phenyl Embraces: Cocrystals of Triphenylphosphine Selenide with Organoiodides (31 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Catalysis

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Halogen bond, Crystallography, Molecule, Polymer and Stereochemistry. His research in Halogen bond intersects with topics in Self-assembly and Adduct. Crystal structure is the focus of his Crystallography research.

He has included themes like Biological system and Powder diffraction in his Crystal structure study. His work carried out in the field of Molecule brings together such families of science as Ion and Synthon. When carried out as part of a general Stereochemistry research project, his work on Molecular model is frequently linked to work in IC50, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
