Odom</p> <p>Department of ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú, ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú</p> <p>Phenothiazine derivatives have seen widespread use as stable electron-donating organic compounds with generally stable oxidized states, which makes them an attractive core for functionalization for use in electrochemical energy storage applications. With phenothiazine itself as a starting material, functionalization of the 3, 7, and 10 positions is facile, providing options to modify redox potentials and improve stability in both the neutral and singly oxidized (radical cation) states. Additionally, this ring system can be built from aryl amines and aryl bromides, allowing for the production of compounds with even more functionalization, including incorporating groups at the 1 and 9 positions and – in some cases – at every sp<sub>2</sub>-hybridized C atom in the aromatic core. In many cases, computational studies have predicted what we have observed experimentally, and often guides our design of next-generation materials. This presentation focuses on the characterization of phenothiazine derivatives, both from experimental and computational approaches, and includes results from their incorporation into lithium-ion batteries as electrolyte additives for overcharge protection as well as studies toward using them in non-aqueous redox flow batteries as catholytes.&nbsp;</p> <p>This seminar is part of the 2015-16 Energy Storage Seminar Series at UK supported by NSF EPSCoR under Award No. <a href="http://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=1355438&amp;HistoricalAwards=false">1355438</a>.</p> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Date: </div> <div class="field-items inline-block"> <div><time datetime="2016-02-16T19:00:00Z">Tuesday, February 16, 2016 - 02:00 pm</time> - <time datetime="2016-02-16T20:00:00Z">Tuesday, February 16, 2016 - 03:00 pm</time> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Location: </div> <div class="inline-block">112 Oliver H Raymond Building</div> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Tags/Keywords: </div> <div class="field-items inline-block"> <div><a href="/tag/chemistry" hreflang="en">chemistry</a></div> <div><a href="/tag/energy" hreflang="en">energy</a></div> <div><a href="/tag/epscor" hreflang="en">epscor</a></div> <div><a href="/tag/organic" hreflang="en">organic</a></div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Event Series: </div> <div class="field-items inline-block"> <div><a href="/event-type/energy-storage-seminar-series" hreflang="en">Energy Storage Seminar Series</a></div> </div> </div> <ul class="links inline"><li><a href="/electron-donating-phenothiazines-energy-storage-applications-nsf-epscor-seminar" rel="tag" title="The Design, Synthesis, and Characterization of Electron-Donating Phenothiazines for Electrochemical Energy Storage Applications" hreflang="en">Read more<span class="visually-hidden"> about The Design, Synthesis, and Characterization of Electron-Donating Phenothiazines for Electrochemical Energy Storage Applications</span></a></li></ul> Mon, 08 Feb 2016 01:01:45 +0000 saodom0 293710 at Organic ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú Seminar /organic-chemistry-seminar-11 <span>Organic ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú Seminar</span> <span><span>saodom0</span></span> <span><time datetime="2015-11-02T10:44:19-05:00" title="Monday, November 2, 2015 - 10:44 am">Mon, 11/02/2015 - 10:44 am</time> </span> <div><p><span>Title: Arranging Molecular Building Blocks with Enhanced Control in the Real and Virtual Worlds</span></p> <p><span><span>Abstract:</span>The Smaldone Group at the University of Texas, Dallas is primarily interested in the design of novel organic materials using the principles of organic synthesis and self-assembly.&nbsp;&nbsp;Specifically, our research focuses on several key areas: i) developing new methods for the synthesis of porous polymers and covalent organic frameworks for environmental applications in clean energy and pollution control, ii) the design and synthesis of novel polymers for applications in 3D printing and iii) creating games for scientific and chemical education.</span></p> <p><span><a href="http://www.utdallas.edu/chemistry/faculty/smaldone.html">http://www.utdallas.edu/chemistry/faculty/smaldone.html</a></span></p> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Date: </div> <div class="field-items inline-block"> <div><time datetime="2015-11-04T17:00:00Z">Wednesday, November 4, 2015 - 12:00 pm</time> - <time datetime="2015-11-04T18:00:00Z">Wednesday, November 4, 2015 - 01:00 pm</time> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Location: </div> <div class="inline-block">CP-114B</div> </div> <div> <div class="field-label font-bold inline-block">Tags/Keywords: </div> <div class="field-items inline-block"> <div><a href="/tag/chemistry" hreflang="en">chemistry</a></div> <div><a href="/tag/organic" hreflang="en">organic</a></div> </div> </div> <ul class="links inline"><li><a href="/organic-chemistry-seminar-11" rel="tag" title="Organic ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú Seminar" hreflang="en">Read more<span class="visually-hidden"> about Organic ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú Seminar</span></a></li></ul> Mon, 02 Nov 2015 15:44:19 +0000 saodom0 292371 at
