A collection of all of the IONiC VIPEr SLiThErs (Supporting Learning with Interactive Teaching: a Hosted, Engaging Roundtable). These events are short presentations on a topic followed by a period of discussion between the presenter and live participants. Each of these events is recorded and posted to the IONiC VIPEr YouTube Channel.
Application of advanced instrumental and preparative techniques to the study of structure, reactivity, and spectroscopy of inorganic and organic substances including materials. This is a capstone course and includes a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) that runs throughout the semester.
This research-based laboratory series investigates the stoichiometry of metal ion complexes of the Schiff-base ligand salicylaldehyde benzoyl hydrazone (SBH) in both the solid and solution states using gravimetric analysis and UV-VIS spectroscopy.
In this lab we have two standard introduction labs (LUM and POR) and then a full CURE. This was the second time I ran this CURE (the first was Spring 2024).
The CURE is being published as a multi-institution ACS Symposium Series Chapter in 2026, and the materials from the CURE will be hosted in a collection on VIPEr.
Once the chapter is published, I will add the link to it in the description.
This collection is of LOs related to the Multi-Institutional CUREs developed by the authors.
This literature discussion celebrates Dr. Geoffrey W. Coates for being the recipient of the ACS Award in Polymer Chemistry 2026 from the American Chemical Society.
The McIndoe Group has a collection of Organometallic Chemistry-related videos that are useful for teaching students about techniques, such as glovebox maintenance and testing for peroxides.
As of January 2026, there were 91 videos on their channel.
This literature discussion explores a paper by the Que group that creates and characterizes spectroscopic and functional model complexes of non-heme iron halogenases.
This paper investigates factors that influence substrate specificity (O2 versus NO reductase activity) within flavodiiron enzymes. The authors mutate potentially relevant amino acids and investigate the biochemical and biophysical properties by UV-visible and EPR spectroscopies.
