Abstract
We employ computational tools to design novel organometallic molecules and investigate organometallic catalysis. Our work addresses experimental–theoretical synergy, generating new insights and ideas to aid and guide experimental research. In this seminar, I will discuss the design of zero- and low-valent metal-metal bonded complexes and the mechanisms of transition metal-catalyzed synthetically useful organic reactions, including olefin metathesis, C–H bond activation, hydroformylation, and C–C cross-coupling.
