Chemical Society Seminar: Dr. Jean-Philip Lumb - Driving Synthesis by Oxidation

Tuesday, November 15, 2016 13:00to14:15
Maass Chemistry Building Room 10, 801 rue Sherbrooke Ouest, Montreal, QC, H3A 0B8, CA

Even though oxidation reactions are required for the synthesis of almost any functional molecule and material, they remain a class of reaction that suffers from poor atom- and step-efficiency, and challenges of selectivity. This lecture will discuss our efforts to develop mild, efficient, and selective oxidation reactions in the areas of organic and metal-organic synthesis. Topics will include aerobic copper catalysis, the total synthesis of lignan natural products, and a quinone-catechol redox couple that enables the aerobic oxidation of metals and main-group elements.
