Watch now – On The Mechanism of Catalytic Methanol Synthesis
When: 28 April 2023, 15:00 BSTWhere: Online Methanol is an important platform chemical and is made on the industrial scale using heterogeneous catalysts. It is currently made in an extremely unsustainable manner, and new routes are needed, utilising ‘green’ hydrogen. The mechanism of the surface reactions involved and work relating…
The Designed Synthesis and Operando Study of Microporous Catalysts
Zeolites are essential catalysts in a range of important current processes, including petrochemical refining, automobile emissions reduction and fine chemicals synthesis, and much pioneering research was performed by JMT in understanding them. Their performance relates closely to their structure in a unique way, because active sites distributed throughout the catalyst…

Accelerating Drug Discovery: Innovations In Catalysis And High-Throughput Experimentation
The talk will present the development and impact of a range of capabilities including microscale and nano scale HTE, and high-throughput electrochemistry. Innovations in synthetic chemistry across modalities (small molecules to macrocyclic peptides) with a lens toward medicinal chemistry applications will be described. In addition, the development of chemistry reaction…
Complexity in Pd–Catalyzed Cross-Couplings: Uncovering Competing Catalytic Cycles Through High Throughput Experimentation and Rich Data Analysis of Reaction Outcomes
In this Webinar I will discuss the complexity associated with some Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g. in terms of Pd catalyst speciation and reaction outcomes). I will then describe how we have used the Chemspeed ISYNTH platform, in tandem with other techniques and methods, to examine a complicated Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling involving the reaction…
