Flyer: Prof. Zdenek Sofer Flyer Title: 2D Magnets and Dielectrics Abstract: The recent progress in methods of high quality and low defect 2D magnetic materials will be discussed. Beside the group of transition metal halides and chalcogens also the rapidly growth family of mixed halogen-chalcogenides will be introduced. The dominantly explored material, chromium sulfo-bromide adopt […]
Mautner-Perkins Lecture Flyer Reticular Chemistry and ChatGPT Abstract: Our recent work on digitalization of reticular chemistry will be reported. We have been experimenting with ChatGPT and machine learning in the discovery of new MOFs for clean air, water, and energy applications.

Flyer:Prof. Alex Zhukhovitskiy Flyer Title: Advancing Inorganic Methods for Polymer Synthesis, Modification, and Degradation Abstract: The polymer backbone is fundamental to the polymer’s identity and properties. My seminar will focus on the development of metathesis mechanisms to access heteroatom-rich polymer backbones, new editing tools to transform existing polymer backbones into different ones, and both strategies […]
Advances In the Synthesis And Application Of Strained-Ring Compounds: Catalytic & Stoichiometric Approaches Abstract: "The synthesis of highly substituted and strained nitrogenous molecules remains a challenging task since installing substituents on small ring systems gets increasingly difficult as the degree of substitution increases. Similarly, it is difficult to install nitrogen bridges onto highly substituted and […]
