Understanding Nickel’s Role in C(sp3)-H Activation: Structure, Reactivity, & Mechanism
Speaker: Jennifer Love (UBC)
We report a mechanistic study of C(sp3) -H bond activation mediated by nickel. A cyclometalated Ni(II) ureate [(PEt3)Ni(κ3 -C,N,N -(CH2)N(Cy)(CO)N((N) -quinolin -8-yl))] was synthesized and isolated from a urea precursor, (Me)(Cy)N(CO)N(H)(quinolin -8-yl), via C(sp3) -H activation. We investigated the effects of solvents and base additives on the rate of C -H activation. Kinetic isotope effect experiments showed that C -H activation is rate determining. Through deuterium label ling and protonation studies, we also showed that C -H activation can be re versible. We extended this reac tion to a range of ureas with primary and secondary C(sp3) -H bonds, which activate readily to for m analogous nickelated products . Finally, we showed that carboxylate additives assist with both ligand dissociation and initial N-H bond activation, consistent with a concerted metalation deprotonation mechanism.On: November 21, 2018 From: 14h00 To: 15h00

Flexible OLEDs for Display and Sensor Applications
Speaker: Jeremy Burroughes (Cambridge Display Technology Limited)
Flexible OLEDs for Display and Sensor Applications Dr Jeremy Burroughes FRS, FREng, FIET, FInstP One of the challenges for efficient and low voltage OLEDs is the need to use a low work function cathode material which leads to increased encapsulation requirements. For mainstream applications such as TVs and lighting, the additional cost is acceptable. For more price sensitive applications, such as displays for white goods and smart cards or sensor applications a method is required to mitigate this issue. This talk will explain how this can be achieved using an air -processable electron injection layer capped with just aluminium. This OLED technology can then be used to make a lower cost OLED display s suitable for a variety of applications, which will be discussed in this presentation. I will also finish off by giving some information on our other printed electronic activities.On: November 27, 2018 From: 14h00 To: 15h00
