Understanding and exploiting homogeneous catalysis in main group chemistry
| Seminar series | Inorganic Chemistry |
| When | Wed, Apr 3 4:30pm |
| Where | Cram Conference Room, 3440 Mol Sci |
| Speaker |
Professor Lisa Rosenberg University of Victoria Department of Chemistry |
| Description | This talk will present some of our recent efforts in the application of catalytic P-H and Si-H activation reactions to synthetic organophosphorus and organosilicon chemistry. This will include our studies of the activity of an unusual low-coordinate ruthenium phosphido complex in the hydrophosphination of alkenes by secondary phosphines, and the catalytic post-polymerization modification of polysilane materials. |
