Sneha passed her PhD candidacy exam (Emory's second-year milestone).
Sneha presented her poster on "Fe and Ni Metallaphotoredox-catalyzed Decarboxylative Arylation".
Harpreet Delivered her talk on the topic "Investigation of earth-abundant metal salts for the inhibition of asphalt-derived volatile organic compounds using HTE"
Both groups worked together to develop a Fe and Ni metallaphotoredox system for the selective decarboxylative arylation of carboxylic acids.
Together they have developed a benchtop-stable iron diethylenetriamine (L1)Fe system that significantly expands the scope of decarboxylative Giese-type additions.
Together, they studied the application of algal biochar to prevent heavy metal leachates from mine tailings.
Laura gave her talk on " Catalyst-First Approach to Optimization of Fe Decarboxylation Reactions".
Jung-Ying presented her poster on "Accelerating the Optimization of Fe Decarboxylation Reactions using Ligation-stability Libraries"
At the 2024 Scialog Meeting on "Automating Chemical Laboratories" Prof. Ackerman-Biegasiewicz and Prof. Gomes came together to discuss a data-driven approach for derisking chemical synthesis. Their groups were awarded a Collaborative Award from the Research Corporation for Science Advancement (RCSA). Graduate students Andy Tran, Hannah Ford, and Sneha Nayak will…
