SUMMARY:Addressing Sustainability Challenges with Earth Abundant Metal Catalysis
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Paul Chirik\, Princeton University & Editor-in-Chief\, Organometallics\nSponsored by ACS Webinars\, ACS Office of Sustainable Development\, and Organometallics\nSeptember 15\, 11am-Noon\, Online via Zoom\, Free\, Registration required\n\n\n\n\nHow chemists interact with and ultimately use the elements on the periodic table is one of the primary sustainability challenges for the 21st century. Applications ranging from alternative energy to the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and every day products should rely on terrestrially abundant elements such as iron rather than rare ones that have a large environmental footprint associated with mining and purification. \nJoin Paul Chirik\, Edward S. Sanford Professor at Princeton University and Editor-in-Chief of Organometallics as he explores the new chemistry enabled by catalysis with Earth abundant transition metals. Dr. Chirik and his research group strive to discover highly effective catalysts with applications in the pharmaceutical\, flavor and fragrance\, silicones\, energy and polymer science industries and often engage with industrial collaborators. They seek to uncover the unique pathways that enable these transformations\, many of which are distinct from precious metals and rely on the unique electronic structures of the first row transition metals. Register now to discover the distinct chemistry enabled by iron and cobalt catalysts and the design principles that were used in catalyst discovery. Learn about real-life applications and broad challenges that confront the field such as air-stable\, easily handled precursors\, functional group tolerance\, ligand design and understanding reaction mechanism. \nThis ACS Webinar is moderated by Director of Sustainable Development\, Adelina Voutchkova-Kostal of ACS and is co-produced with the ACS Office of Sustainable Development and Organometallics. \nDiscover more about the webinar topic including submission details for the planned joint Virtual Special Issue in Organometallics and OPR&D “Advances and Applications in Catalysis with Earth-Abundant Metals.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\nHow to understand your elemental footprint and what is the importance of elemental usage in society\nWhat is the indefensible role of hydrocarbons in our daily lives and what are some approaches to increase the sustainability of our elemental usage and hydrocarbon future\nWhat are the potential frontiers in development of sustainable base-metal catalytic transformations\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWebinar Details\n\nThursday\, September 15\, 2022 @ 2-3pm ET\nFree to Register with ACS ID\nSlides will be available to download on the day of the webinar

SUMMARY:Los Increíbles Líquidos Iónicos: Síntesis y Caracterización
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Clarissa P. Frizzo\, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria and Prof. Ingrid Montes\, Universidad de Puerto Rico\, Recinto de Río Piedras\nSponsored by ACS Webinars\, Sociedad Quimica de Mexico\, and C&EN en Espanol\n11am-Noon\, Online via Zoom\, Free\, Registration required\n\nLos líquidos iónicos (IL) se describieron por primera vez hace casi un siglo aunque recientemente han despertado interés debido a una variedad de aplicaciones potenciales en procesos químicos\, biológicos y con los más diversos materiales. Las propiedades fisicoquímicas de estos compuestos se pueden ajustar fácilmente mediante la elección adecuada del catión y el anión que los constituyen. Por lo tanto\, una propiedad más atractiva de los ILs es la flexibilidad o el ajuste del desarrollo de las propiedades físicas\, químicas y biológicas al cambiar la estructura del catión y el anión. \nDurante el webinar gratuito\, la Dra. Clarissa P. Frizzo de la Universidade Federal de Santa Maria en Brasil hablará sobre cómo se puede sintetizar y caracterizar nuevos líquidos iónicos y cómo funcionan sus propiedades físicas\, como la tensión superficial\, la viscosidad\, la densidad\, la estabilidad térmica y la fuerza de interacción catión-anión. Regístrese hoy para aprender sobre las propiedades de los tensioactivos\, lubricantes\, emulsionantes propiedades biológicas tales como citotoxicidad y actividad antimicrobiana. \n\n\n\nLo Que El Público Aprenderá\n\nQué son líquidos iónicos\nCuales son las propriedades físicas de líquidos iónicos y como se caracterizan\nQué es la aplicación de líquidos iónicos en la biolubricación\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDetalles del Evento\n\nMiércoles\, el 28 de Septiembre\, 2022 @ 2:00–3:00pm ET / 1:00-2:00pm CT\nCoste: Gratuito\nLas diapositivas estarán disponibles para descargar el día del evento
