About event
🗣️ We are looking forward to hosting Prof. Hiroyuki Isobe (Department of Chemistry, The University of Tokyo, Japan) with an invited lecture "Synthesis-Driven Chemistry of Nanocarbon Molecules":
"Nanocarbons such as fullerene, nanotubes and graphene are enchanting not only scientists but also lay persons with their attractive structures composed of sp^2-carbon. The fundamental geometry of sp^2-carbon, i.e., trigonal planar, is the key to generate unique network, which also cover nonplanar networks with a combination of non-hexagonal polygons. This lecture will show a synthetic chemist's approach to exploit the chemistry of the 'trigonal planar' structures with organic syntheses as a firm ground. Some representative keywords to be covered in the lecture shall be as follows: synthetic nanotube molecules, molecular bearings, chirality, circularly polarized luminescence, curved pi-systems, machine-learning assisted reaction optimizations, van 't Hoff validations and so on."
