A team at UNC-Chapel Hill has developed a new process for synthesizing amides in a 100% atom-economical, sustainable fashion using earth-abundant cobalt...

A collaborative team from the Miller lab and Eastman has discovered a new process for making anhydrides that promises improvements in cost and sustainability.

Featured on the cover of The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, the Lu Group introduces a geometric theoretical framework that sheds light on cyclic chemical reaction networks, such as catalysis networks, to harness energy from rapid environmental oscillations.

The award supports a collaborative project between UNC-Chapel Hill and NC State University. Researchers will develop a new short-wave infrared light camera and train a diverse group of students in using innovative technologies.

We are pleased to announce the promotion of 2 faculty members: Joshua Beaver and Danielle Zurcher.

The institute’s Faculty Fellowship Program will provide support for Frank Leibfarth, associate professor in the Department of Chemistry within the College of Arts and Sciences, whose research includes expanding options for recycling.

The UNC department of chemistry hosts an annual three-day competition called Sci-athon that invites teams of graduate students from various STEM disciplines to come up with the next big idea in chemistry.

Graduate students from across North Carolina — including several from the Department of Chemistry at UNC-Chapel Hill — came together in May for a two-day professional development conference that partnered industry experts with graduate students.
