CBE Seminar Series: J. Will Medlin September 15 @ 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM 1610 Engineering Hall 1415 Engineering Drive, Madison One approach toward controlling selectivity in catalysis is to systematically design these encapsulating ligands to impart improved activity, selectivity, and stability in reactions such as CO2 hydrogenation, C-C coupling, and the hydrodeoxygenation of biomass-derived oxygenates. This presentation will describe design of different components of the organic ligands—the “head” group that covalently attaches to the support versus the “tail” organic function—to control selectivity in reactions at surfaces. The presentation will also explain advantages and limitations for use of organic modifiers in heterogeneous catalysis.
