José M. Goicoechea works in synthetic inorganic and organometallic chemistry, creating new molecules built around main-group elements such as phosphorus, arsenic, gallium, indium, and aluminium, as well as transition metals like iron and titanium. A recurring focus is making unusual and reactive chemical species title="phosphaketenes, cyaphides, and metal-element multiple bonds" that are difficult to isolate, then studying their structure, bonding, and reactivity. The work often characterizes these compounds with crystallography and explores how they react with small molecules like CO2 and ammonia.
