“Imagining, Building, and Understanding the Next Generation Battery” Abstract: Electrochemical energy conversion and storage is critical for vehicle electrification and storing clean energy from intermittent sources (i.e. wind, solar) on the grid. Towards these goals, my group pursues the broad spectrum of stages necessary for technological innovation: (1) developing new tools to discover fundamental understandings, […]
Some Simple Concepts and Their Consequences in Covalent Mechanochemistry
Abstract:The potential to use mechanochemistry, either in isolated polymers or in polymeric materials, to trigger a programmed, desirable covalent molecular response was first revealed only a decade or so ago. Since that time, covalent polymer mechanochemistry has undergone a renaissance in which it has been extensively explored by a number of research groups and for a variety of purposes including (but not limited […]

“Ambient Electrochemical Functionalization of Methane with d0 early transition metal-oxo species” Abstract: The abundant yet widely distributed methane (CH4) resources demands an efficient conversion of CH4 into liquid chemicals at ambient conditions with minimal infrastructure support. In the existing approaches of metal-catalyzed reactions and catalysis based on free-radical chain mechanism, the reactivities of the former metal species seem insufficient to […]
Combining Theory and Experiment to Develop Selective Three-Component Fe-Catalyzed Radical Cascade/Cross-Couplings
Abstract: Despite advances in high-throughput screening methods leading to a surge in the discovery of catalytic reactions, our knowledge of the molecular-level interactions in the rate- and selectivity-determining steps of catalytic reactions, especially those involving highly unstable and reactive open-shell intermediates, is rudimentary. These knowledge gaps prevent control, suppression or enhancement, of competing reaction channels that […]
