SUMMARY:From Molecules to Microelectrode Arrays: Using Electrochemistry to
  Solve Problems of Structure and Location - Professor Kevin Moeller\, Univ
 ersity of Washington\, St Louis\, USA
DTSTART:20140403T150000Z

CONTACT:Chloe Barker
DESCRIPTION:Electrochemistry is a powerful tool that can be used to select
 ively reverse the polarity of known functional groups\, solve challenging 
 synthetic problems\, and probe the mechanism of reactive intermediates in 
 new ways. Interestingly\, the connection between electrochemistry and synt
 hesis also works well in the opposite direction. Organic synthesis is a po
 werful tool that can be used to selectively functionalize electrodes and s
 olve challenging analytical problems in new ways. In the seminar to be pre
 sented\, the interplay between electrochemistry and organic synthesis will
  be examined in order to shed light on how a combination of the technologi
 es provides both new methods for the construction of organic molecules and
  new approaches for the evaluation of small molecule – receptor interact
 ions.\n\nProfessor Kevin D. Moeller has been on the faculty at Washington 
 University in St. Louis for 26 years. His group has published over 120 pap
 ers and made over 110 presentations at scientific meetings. Professor Moel
 ler has presented over 145 invited seminars and lecturers. He is a member 
 of the Executive Committee for the Organic and Biological Electrochemistry
  Division of The Electrochemical Society\, was named Washington University
 ’s Professor of the Year in 2001\, and has won the St. Louis Award from 
 the ACS for his contributions to organic chemistry.
