Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Yiming Wang

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Wang Flyer Cationic Late Transition Metal Complexes for Selective α-C–H Functionalization Abstract: We describe the discovery and development of catalytic α-C–H functionalization reactions of simple unsaturated hydrocarbons, including alkynes, alkenes, and allenes, using cationic cyclopentadienyliron(II) dicarbonyl complexes. These complexes enable the development of a new mode of catalytic C–H functionalization in which metal coordination to […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Lea Nienhaus

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Neinhaus Flyer Photon Transformers: Effect of Material Dimensionality on Photon Upconversion Abstract: Triplet generation at a hybrid inorganic/organic semiconductor interface is a very promising approach to increase the (photo-)excited state recombination lifetime, and thus, can facilitate energy harvesting. One of the possible applications for the generated spin-triplet excitons is photon upconversion. Photon upconversion describes the […]

Chem 263 Seminars in Chemical Biology: Prof. Mireille Kamariza

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Towards Tuberculosis control: A Trehalose-based Detection System for live Mycobacterium tuberculosis Tuberculosis (TB) is second only to COVID-19 as the most lethal cause of death from a single infectious agent. Current primary methods for diagnosing TB infection present significant limitations such as lengthy time-to-result for phenotypic tests, the need for a priori knowledge of Mycobacterium […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Haotian Wang

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Flyer: Dr. Haotian Wang Flyer Title: Electrochemical Approaches to Decarbonizing Fuels and Chemicals Abstract: Electrochemical conversion of atmospheric molecules (CO2, O2, H2O, N2) into fuels and chemicals represents a green and alternative route compared to traditional manufacturing approaches. However, its practice is currently challenged at two systematic levels: the lack of active, selective, and stable […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Art Bragg

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Bragg Flyer Structure-tuned Exciton Dynamics in Peptide and Electrolyte-scaffolded Molecular Assemblies Abstract: Electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding present means for driving supramolecular assembly of organic chromophores in aqueous environments and controlling the microstructures of resultant assemblies for light-harvesting applications.  We present our recent studies of the microstructure-dependence of exciton migration and electron transfer in two […]

Special Seminar: Research in Chemical Education and STEM Pedagogy: Mr. Song Wang

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Flyer: Mr. Song Wang Flyer Title: A post-structural analysis of student learning with an augmented reality molecular visualization tool in an undergraduate chemistry course Abstract: External representations provide an important space of learning and medium for communicating about molecular structure and function in the chemical sciences. As affordable visualization tools continue to advance, there has […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Konstantin Bukhryakov

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Flyer: Prof. Konstantin Bukhryakov Flyer Title: Vanadium Alkylidenes for Olefin Metathesis Abstract: Olefin metathesis is a widely used synthetic method for the synthesis of chemicals employed in daily life, including plastics, household chemicals, agrochemicals, and high-grade fuels, including biofuels from renewable, sustainable feedstock. The current production of fine and commodity chemicals involving olefin metathesis exclusively […]
