- Zhang, J.; Foley, B. J.; Bhuvanesh, N.; Whited, M. T.; Ozerov, O. V. “Synthesis & Reactivity of Novel Silyl/Silylene Pincer Cobalt Complexes” INOR-890.
- Ma, S.; Zhang, J.; Whited, M. T.; Janzen, D. E. “Synthesis, Characterization and Reactivity of Pincer-Type Bis(Phosphine)/Silylene [P2Si]Ru Complexes” INOR-891 and SciMix
On the road
Matt gave invited lectures at University of Richmond and Virginia Tech. Thanks to the hosts for wonderful visits!
New paper in Dalton
Our ruthenium work has just been published! Check out Binh, Jim, and Jason’s awesome work demonstrating silylene-assisted hydride transfer to CO2.
The Whited group at ACS
The Whited group’s collaborative work with Prof. Buck Taylor was on display at the Spring 2017 ACS National Meeting in San Francisco:
- Trenerry, M.; Whited, M.; Taylor B. L. “Computational Studies of Rhodium-Catalyzed Hydrogenation and Carbon Dioxide Activation” INOR-871.
Matt named a Dreyfus Scholar
Matt has been chosen as a 2016 Henry Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar! See the Carleton press release here.
