Krzysztof’s expertise is in the design and synthesis of functionalized organic molecules including macrocycles that have unique properties, such as high selectivities for target species including metals and organic molecules. He is particularly adept at the design and development of novel synthetic processes enabling shortening and simplifying of compound preparation for industrial applications. Krzysztof’s skills include the development of improved procedures for preparation of functionalized organic molecules on scales ranging from grams to tonnes for commercial use. His work has been recognized by receipt of numerous awards, including, jointly with Dr. Ronald L. Bruening, the 2020 Industrial Engineering & Chemistry Fellow Award of the American Chemical Society. Dr. Krakowiak received M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Chemistry from the Medical Academy, Lodz, Poland and did postdoctoral work in Organic Chemistry at Brigham Young University.
