  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Sundargopal Ghosh

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Title: “Coordination Chemistry of Diborane(4) and Diborane(6)” Abstract: The fascinating aspect of metallaborane chemistry is that several classic organometallic complexes that defined fundamental structural and bonding paradigms are mimicked by many isoelectronic metallaborane analogues. In this connection, diborane compounds not only mimics several classic organometallic compounds but also they have been extensively explored for the […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Titel Jurca

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

    Title: “Building a Toolbox for Sustainable Synthesis and Catalysis” Abstract: The presentation will focus on three of our current areas of interest: Mechanochemical synthesis: by leveraging mechanochemical forces via vibratory ball milling or ultrasonic irradiation, we can expedite the synthesis of both conventional, and exotic Schiff base coordination complexes. Critically these reactions can be performed solvent-free […]

  • Dickerson Biochemistry Seminar

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

    Introduction of Biochemistry Faculty to First Year Biochemistry Graduate Students

  • Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Evgeny Pidko

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

    Pidko Flyer Title: Death and Life of Homogeneous Carbonyl Reduction Catalysts: Navigating Condition Space Towards Superior Catalytic Performance Abstract: Catalytic hydrogenation chemistry offers a greener and more sustainable alternative to prevalent stoichiometric reduction methodologies in the production of high-value chemicals. In recent years, traditional Ru and Ir catalysts have been complemented by novel first-row transition […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Brandon Jolly and Yi Chen

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Flyer: Brandon Jolly and Yi Chen Flyer Speaker: Brandon Jolly Title: Spatial Control in Multi-step, Multi-catalyst Organometallic Processes Abstract: Spatial localization is one method in which biology manages its complex network of multi-step and/or multi-catalyst processes. For example, encapsulation of enzymes via compartmentalization allows for the efficient generation and utilization of intermediate species along a […]

  • Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Mitchio Okumura

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

    Okumura Flyer Title: Combs and Mirrors: Spectroscopic Studies of Radical Reactions Important in Air and Space Abstract: Trace gas phase free radicals play a central role in the chemistry of Earth and planetary atmospheres, as well as the interstellar medium. Laboratory studies of their spectroscopy, reaction dynamics and kinetics are important for accurate modeling of […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Timothy Johnstone

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Prof. Timothy Johnstone Flyer Title:“Synthesis, Isolation, and Exploration of the Chemistry of Kinetically-Stabilized Pnictine Oxides” Abstract: The light pnictine oxides R 3 NO, R 3 PO, and R 3 AsO comprise a well-characterized class of monomeric molecules with a tetrahedral geometry about the pnictogen center. In contrast, the preparation of the corresponding Sb and Bi […]

  • Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Steven D. Townsend

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

    Townsend Flyer Title: Preventing Premature Birth and Breaking Strong Bonds with Carbohydrates Abstract: Abstract: Carbohydrates are the most abundant organic molecules on earth and are critical to a myriad of biological processes. The Vanderbilt Laboratory for Glycoscience uses a blend of synthetic organic chemistry and microbiology to elucidate the biological roles of carbohydrates, with a […]
