Flyer: Shiyun Lin, George Wong, and Hootan Roshandel Flyer Shiyun Lin Title: Multistate Catalysis: Ferrocene Aluminum Compound for Versatile Polymerization and Sustainable Polycarbonates Abstract: Nature has developed an intricate mechanism through polymerase enzymes to control polymerization with monomer-level precision. However, this system is restricted to a limited range of monomers. In contrast, synthetic chemistry offers […]

Shuaijing Du of the Duan Research Group Flyer: Shuaijing Du Student Exit Talk Flyer Title: Introducing Chirality into Hybrid Superlattices Abstract: I will present recent results on two different projects, with the common theme of introducing chirality into hybrid superlattices. 1: Modular assembly of a library of hybrid superlattices. Hybrid superlattices, composed of two-dimensional atomic […]

Flyer: Prof. Jack Norton Flyer Title: Applications of Catalytic H• Transfer from H2 Abstract: Transition-metal hydride complexes with en-he bonds stronger than 56 kcal mol' can often be generated from hydrogen, and may thus be able to catalyze the transfer of H from that gas. Hydrides with unusually weak M-H bonds, such as HV(CO),(dppe), can […]
