Abstract

Over the past two decades, inorganic chemistry has seen a renaissance in the study of transition metal catalysts that mediate multi-electron, multi-substrate reactions converting low value feedstocks to high value chemicals. Electrochemistry, in particular cyclic voltammetry, is a powerful tool to interrogate both catalyst activity and the mechanisms by which these transformations proceed. However, most undergraduate and graduate programs offer little formal training in these analytical methods and skills are typically learned “at the bench.” In this talk, I will discuss the development of pedagogical tools based on current best practices for teaching and learning cyclic voltammetry, including introductory texts, practical experiments designed to provide hands-on training, and multi-day interactive workshops.
