Tautomeric Ligands and their Applications: Aerobic Oxygenations and Ligands for Lewis Acids

Assistant Professor Jonathan Kuo – Chemistry, Pennsylvania State University

Organic ligands alter the electronic structure and properties of the transition metals that they bind to. But what other functions can be programmed into metal/ligand complexes? In this talk, we will discuss how dynamic ligand features “unlock” key steps for (a) aerobic oxygenation and (b) electrophilic olefin activation.
