Research Highlights

You can turn a donkey into a racehorse:

First-principles calculations are used to show how organic molecules can be transformed into superhalogens by simultaneous replacement of core C and ligand H atoms. The discovery of organic superhalogen molecules should open new opportunities in organic chemistry.

18- electron rule inspired Zintl-like ions composed of all transition metals:
