Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: David Ginger

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

Prof Ginger Flyer Title: Probing Ion Injection and Transport in Conjugated Polymers: From Bioelectronic Brains to Energy Storage Abstract:   Ion injection and transport in conjugated polymers affects the performance of devices ranging from organic electrochemical transistors (OECT) for bioelectronic signal transduction, and from aqueous polymer batteries to next generation neuromorphic computing architectures. The performance of conjugated […]

NSF Center for Integrated Catalysis Webinar Series: Frank A. Leibfarth

Virtual Event Virtual Event

Title: Stereoselective Cationic Polymerization of Prochiral Monomers Abstract: The stereochemistry of vinyl polymers, known as polymer tacticity, is intimately linked to their resultant material properties. Despite the well-developed stereoselective methods for the polymerization of propylene and other nonpolar -olefins, general approaches to the stereoselective polymerization of polar vinyl monomers are not well developed. In this […]

Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Nicholas Ball

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

Prof Ball Flyer Unlocking Fluorine: Activation of Sulfur(VI) Fluorides for New Sulfur-Fluorine Exchange (SuFEx) Reactions Abstract: Sulfur-fluoride exchange (SuFEx) chemistry is emerging as a promising synthetic tool in chemical biology, material science, and synthetic chemistry. In synthesis, sulfur (VI) fluorides show unique promise as synthons in organic chemistry due their stability versus other sulfur (VI) […]

Biochemistry Seminar Series – Prof. Linlin Zhao

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

Title: Exploiting Abasic Site Chemistry to Decipher Mitochondrial Genome Biology Abstract: Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) encodes 37 essential genes and plays a critical role in mitochondrial and cellular functions. Compared to nuclear DNA (nDNA), mtDNA is more susceptible to chemical modifications by endogenous and exogenous factors partly due to its proximity to the oxidative phosphorylation […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Anton Van der Ven

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

Prof Van der Ven Flyer Title: From Electronic Structure to Battery Thermodynamics and Kinetics Abstract:   Most electrochemical processes can be modeled with powerful phenomenological theories that describe ion transport, interface reactions and mechanical responses. Phenomenological descriptions, however, rely on materials specific coefficients and free energies, which are quantities that are often difficult to measure in […]

Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Wei Liu

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

Prof Liu Flyer Copper-Catalyzed Coupling Reactions: Mechanism, Catalysis, and Applications in Life Sciences Abstract: Owing to their many attractive characteristics, copper catalysts represent appealing alternatives to precious metal catalysts, although various limitations remain in copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Recently, we and others recognized that copper catalysis presents a powerful strategy to functionalize sp3 hybridized carbon radicals […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Seth Cohen

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

Flyer: Prof. Seth Cohen Flyer Title: Exploring MOF-Polymer Hybrid Materials Abstract: Hybrid materials of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and polymers have gained interest as processible composites that might be suitable for a wide range of applications. A number of approaches have been pursued to create MOF-polymer composites, including mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) prepared with MOFs, polymer-decorated MOF […]

Special Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Jörg Enderlein

Young Hall 2033

Enderlein Flyer Updated Title: Metal and Graphene Induced Energy Transfer Abstract:   Metal-Induced Energy Transfer (MIET) Imaging is a recently developed method that allows for nanometer resolution along the optical axis. It is based on the fact that, when placing a fluorescent molecule close to a metal, its fluorescence properties change dramatically, due to electromagnetic coupling […]
