Title: A tribute to Prof. Anthony J. Arduengo, III
Abstract: III was born in 1952 in Tampa, FL and raised in the greater Atlanta, GA area.By the age of 16, Bo and his father (Anthony J. Arduengo, II) had built his first car and it was registered as street-legal.This appeared to be the beginning of a 40 plus year love affair with performance automobiles (as Bo is currently the owner of a Lotus Elise, etc….).The automobile was later re-engineered to run on alternate fuels including alcohol and hydrogen, thus this effort would forecast Bo's professional research involvement in the National Hydrogen Fuel Initiative (HFI) and the Chemical Hydrogen Storage Program by more than 30 years.
