Chemistry research group at Cornell University, working on organic, inorganic, and materials chemistry. Catalysis and separations.
Check out undergrad Zayim's paper on aqueous MOF synthesis, now out in JMCA! He was even able to find a new open metal site MOF that does not form under traditional solvothermal conditions. Congrats to PhD coauthors Ron, Tristan, and Clarisse!

⭐️ fifth year PhD student Kaitlyn (who worked in the Chirik lab as a UG) traveled to the pits of New Jersey today to present her research on fluorination using MOFs at Princeton! Thanks @stache-lab.bsky.social for helping to organize 😀

This figure really highlights the promise of N-oxides as new CO2 sorbents - they exhibit good thermal stability when heated under flue gas from Cornell's power plant, especially compared to structurally similar amines!

What happens when 3 organic chemists team up to tackle climate change? Check out the story in Zoe's paper with the Lambert group, out now in JACS!
