1,4-Dihydropyrrolopyrrole and Dipyrrolonaphthyridinedione – Novel Building Blocks for Optoelectronics Abstract: Recently we have discovered and optimized the first practical synthesis of non-fused pyrrolepyrroles via domino reaction of aldehydes, primary amines, and butane-2,3-dione.1 Six bonds are formed in heretofore unknown tandem process, which gives rise to substituted pyrrolepyrroles – the ‘missing link’ on the map of […]

Hayes Flyer Time-resolved Spectroscopic Tools for Mechanistic Studies of Organic and Inorganic Photochemistry Abstract: Ultrafast optical spectroscopies are powerful tools for characterizing electronic excited state dynamics in homogeneous photochemistry. When the system of interest contains a transition metal, we may also take advantage of the element specificity of X-ray spectroscopies to provide complementary information. I […] |

Flyer: Prof. Lior Sepunaru Flyer Title: From molecular electrocatalysis to electro-assembly Abstract: When we think about electrochemistry, we mostly think about batteries. However, electrochemistry has been experiencing a renaissance in many other subdisciplines of chemistry in the last few years. In this talk, I will introduce the concept of nanoelectrochemistry and how it is used […] |

Flyer: Prof. Keith Keitz Flyer Title: Expanding Cellular Metabolism through Extracellular Electron Transfer Abstract: Qualities exhibited by living systems, including self-regulation, self-healing, morphology control, and environmental responsiveness, are highly attractive from a material design perspective. However, biological materials including biofilms and tissues are generally less robust and more difficult to engineer than synthetic materials. Bridging […] |

Narang Flyer Predicting Electron Hydrodynamics and Signatures of Unconventional Transport Abstract: The re-invigorated field of electron hydrodynamics in quantum matter has recently garnered considerable scientific interest, both due to its technological promise of designing near dissipation-less nanoelectronics, as well as its fundamental importance as an experimental probe of strong electron-electron interactions. Investigating the capacity to […] |

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 […] |

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 […] |

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 […] |

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 […] |

Liu Flyer Atypical Reactions in the Biosynthesis of Herbicidins Abstract: Herbicidins are adenosine-derived nucleoside antibiotics with an unusual tricyclic core structure. Deletion of the genes responsible for formation of the tricyclic skeleton in Streptomyces sp. L-9-10 reveals the in vivo importance of Her4, Her5 and Her6 during the early stages of herbicidin biosynthesis. In vitro […] |
