Theoretical and Physical Chemistry of Triel Bonding

Sławomir Janusz Grabowski was born in Warsaw, Poland (1956) and received his M.Sc. degree (1981) and his Ph.D. (1986) at the University of Warsaw. He received his D.Sc. (habilitation, 1998) at the Technical University of Łódź, Poland. Currently he is employed as an Ikerbasque Research Professor at the University of the Basque Country, Spain. Dr. Grabowski has authored or co-authored over 200 papers, 13 book chapters and he has edited books on hydrogen bonding (Hydrogen Bonding – New Insights, Springer, Dordrecht 2006; Analysis of Hydrogen Bonds in Crystals, Printed Edition of the Special Issue Published in Crystals, MDPI, Basel-Beijing-Wuhan-Barcelona 2016). He is also an author of the book Understanding Hydrogen Bonds: Theoretical and Experimental Views, The Royal Chemical Society, 2021. His work encompasses the analysis of hydrogen bonding, halogen bonding and the other Lewis acids – Lewis base interactions in the gas phase as well as in crystals. He is a member of the Editorial Boards of Crystals (as editor-in-chief of the section Interactions in Crystals, an MDPI journal), Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry and of Computational and Theoretical Chemistry as well as an ongoing reviewer in numerous physical chemistry and theoretical chemistry journals (40-50 reports a year).
