MIT on MIT's "Solar-Power Breakthrough" (Climateer Investing)

Fri, 01 Aug 2008 16:37:00 GMT

We had the heads-up yesterday from Forbes, " HEADS UP: Solar Energy, All Night Long " Here's MIT's Technology Review: Researchers have found a cheap and easy way to store the energy made by solar power Researchers have made a major advance in inorganic chemistry that could lead to a cheap way to store energy from the sun. In so doing, they have solved one of the key problems in making...

1950’s Chemistry (Lamentations on Chemistry)

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 00:10:21 GMT

I just spent some time listening to an acquaintance talking about his days as a student at MIT and as a grad student at Harvard in the early 1950’s. He had Geoff Wilkinson for inorganic chemistry at MIT as an undergrad and later did his PhD with Wilkinson at Harvard. Wilkinson did radiochemistry in the Manhattan Project prior to joining [...]

Inorganic chemistry: Towards a noble line (Nature)

Wed, 21 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT

J. Am. Chem. Soc.130, 6114–6118 (2008) doi:10.1021/ja077835vFor decades chemists have known that noble gases can subvert their name by forming chemical compounds. No compound demonstrates this point as emphatically as HXeOXeH, a molecule prepared by Leonid

A Salute (In the Pipeline)

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 12:25:42 GMT

Dr. Warfield Teague is retiring this year, which makes me feel old. He was one of the professors who helped make me what I am today – in his case, partly by keeping me out of his chosen field of inorganic chemistry. It was a good move on his part; I’d surely have blown something up good and thoroughly when I got to grad school, such are the opportunities in that area. Unfortunately for...

Descriptive Inorganic Chemistry (Lamentations on Chemistry)

Tue, 25 Mar 2008 12:25:58 GMT

Now that I am doing a fair amount of inorganic synthesis and preparation of metal coordination complexes, I look back to my undergraduate education and wish that it had been somewhat different. In my undergrad time in the early 80’s, inorganic texts were heavy in theoretical concepts- molecular spectroscopy, ligand field theory, and group theory. It made [...]

Most metal ions will coordinate some electron-rich species in solution - water is a common suspect. Many other things can be hung off of certain metals, however, and an entire field and fame and fortune are available to those who manage to make something useful involving a metal. "Inorganic chemistry" is really a field unto itself - organic and biochemists make use of it, but...
