Dmitry Gelman Ph.D., associate professor of the Department of Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem (Israel) visited RUDN University
On the 22 of May, 2018 prof. Dm. Gelman made a report for students and staff on the theme: «Coordination chemistry and catalysis using three-dimensional bifunctional ligands.»
Prof. Dm. Gelman said that his research team is developing new catalytic systems for the dehydrogenation of formic acid and hydrogenation of carbon dioxide and the development of new standard transformations involving the structural modification of functionalized hydrocarbon substrates using formic acid as a source of H2 and CO2. This goal was motivated by the economic and environmental stability of formic acid, as well as the importance of a fundamental understanding of the interaction of carbon dioxide with transition metal catalysts. In particular, the catalysts presented in the lecture relate to the family of 3-D bifunctional PC (sp3) p-pincer complexes developed in the group in recent years.
On April 25, an online seminar was held by Professor Michael McCarthy on the topic “Corpora and the Advanced Level: Bridges to Specialization”. The possibility of using corpora in teaching advanced-level students is already on the agenda.
On May 15 and 18, more than 100 undergraduate and graduate students of the Foreign Languages Institute participated in the new format of the Student Research School 2020. The things that rallied the participants included not only the remote format on Microsoft Teams platform, which had already become familiar, but also the presentation of the material in a simple, clear language. The speakers were the students themselves.
