755th WE-Heraeus-Seminar Solvation Chemistry and Reactive Molecules

755th WE-Heraeus-Seminar Illuminates Molecular Reactivity in a Solvent Environment

From September 17 to September 23, 2023, the 755th WE-Heraeus-Seminar was held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef. Scientifically organised by Prof. Dr. Wolfram Sander from Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Prof. Dr. Elsa Sanchez Garcia from TU Dortmund, and Prof. Dr. Martina Havenith-Newen from Ruhr-Universität Bochum, this seminar delved into the intricate world of reactive molecular species and solvation chemistry.

 

Reactive molecular species like radicals, polyradicals, carbenes, and molecular ions play crucial roles in understanding molecular reactivity, especially in solvent environments. Understanding reactive molecules is challenging yet crucial. The interdisciplinary seminar was a resounding success in shedding light on these complex entities and their significance in molecular reactivity as well as in connecting renowned international researchers and early-career scientists from diverse scientific fields.

Following this event, a significant number of attendees could seamlessly transition to the next top event: the WE-Heraeus seminar focusing on "Photoinduced, Charge-Driven, and Molecular Processes under Confinement", organized by the Graduiertenkolleg 2376 Confinement-Controlled Chemistry.
