With all the #ChemSky activity, a reintroduction felt timely. I'm a theorist fascinated by all things quantum, especially light-driven processes. I enjoy both developing methods and collaborating with experimentalists on puzzles. The word cloud highlights my papers—DFT dominates, but there’s more!

The Jasrasaria Group @uchichemistry.bsky.social is recruiting postdocs! We will use theory and simulation to understand how microscopic interactions between atoms and electrons in materials dictate their macroscopic behaviors. Visit diptijasrasaria.com/contact to learn more. Reposts appreciated!

This week’s #ChemSciPicks is from from Stephen Craig (Duke University), Todd Martinez (Stanford University) and colleagues!
Their study explores structure-property relationships for the force-triggered disrotatory ring-opening of cyclobutene.

We're ecstatic to have collaborated with our former colleagues at Princeton to write this review (a @kudischlab.bsky.social first!) on the ultrafast spectroscopy and dynamics of photoredox catalysis. I hope you'll enjoy this *light* reading in these dark times.

We are used to C-H bonds normally being quite strong. How then does soot form from fuel dehydrogenation? In @pnas.org, we computationally show that resonance stabilized radicals often have tiny (~20 kcal/mol) C-H bond energies, permitting H atom ejection in flames.

We measured forces on core-excited potential energy surfaces of CCl₄ with excellent agreement between expt and theory. Time to start assessing slopes in quantum chemistry, to improve photochemical predictions?

Have you wondered when a chemical bond breaks? We propose that polarizability maxima vs dissociation coordinates are ideal cutoff points, since they mark the onset of bonding electron localization. Read more in our recent publication in Angew. Chem.:

I’m a theoretical chemist who likes to model molecules (sometimes materials) with quantum mechanics. I’m interested in connecting with other scientists and learn about new developments (i.e. hoping for something close to the old science twitter experience.) #compchem #chemtwitter
