This collection of learning objects was created to celebrate the National ACS Award Winners 2022 who are members of the Division of Inorganic Chemistry. The list of award winners is shown below.
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.
We are currently collecting data on the use of VIPEr materials in support of a future grant proposal. Please help keep this community functioning by taking a few minutes to respond. You can access the survey through this link. All answers are anonymous, but you have the option at the end of the survey to give us permission to quote you.
If you are a registered VIPEr faculty user, you may have already taken this survey. Thank you for your help!
Please join us on Wednesday, April 3rd at 12:00 pm Eastern (9:00 am Pacific) for a presentation and workshop by Jen Heemstra (Washington University in St. Louis) titled "A Scientist's Guide to Social Media". This workshop will highlight the basics of social media and provide practice for drafting posts on topics that interest you. Please register here:https://forms.gle/6PN5CX9Pb4FKkfFF9
This literature discussion LO was created for the ACS National Award Winners 2024 collection. Dr. Charles Campbell was the recipient of the 2024 Gabor A.

This literature discussion learning object describes the isolation and structure of tetrabenzylthorium, a molecule that was synthesized many years ago but was never thoroughly characterized.
This literature discussion LO was created for the ACS National Award Winners 2024 collection. Dr. Holger Braunschweig was the recipient of the 2024 M. Frederick Hawthorne Award in Main Group Inorganic Chemistry. This LO is based on a figure from the article "Transition metal borylene complexes" published in Chem. Soc. Rev., 2013, 42, 3197. DOI: 10.1039/c3cs35510a.
In fall 2023, Jarad Mason from Harvard University was awarded the ACS Award in Pure Chemistry for his contributions to the fields of phase-change materials, microporous materials, and materials chemistry. In this literature discussion, students will examine his recent paper “Microporous water with high gas solubilities," Nature 2022, 608, 712-718 which is related to that work.
