Biography

Born 1972; B.Sc. Beijing Normal University (1996); M.Sc. Beijing Normal University (1998); Ph.D. The Chinese University of Hong Kong (2002); Postdoctoral Fellow, University of California at Berkeley (UC Berkeley)/Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (2002-2005); Faculty Staff, Beijing Normal University (2005-present).

Research Interests

Organic Synthesis, Asymmetric Synthesis, Organometallic Synthesis and Homogenous Catalysis.

Work in Dr. Zi's research group is directed toward the synthesis and study of new and unusual molecular organometallic compounds of the p-, d- and f-block elements. The emphasis is on preparing compounds that exhibit novel reactivity, selectivity (including stereoselectivity and enantioselectivity) and/or catalytic behavior (homogeneously), with the discovery of new applications (new chemical reactions) of these compounds to catalysis and organic synthesis. In addition to the dry-box and Schlenk techniques used to prepare and manipulate compounds, we exploit a variety of characterization methods, including NMR, IR, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography.

Positions Open

The mission of Dr. Zi’s group includes the education and training of the next generation of scientists and teachers to promote national science and education goals. Every year, one or two positions are available for M.Sc, Ph. D students and Postdoctoral Fellows:

Graduate students: Prospective graduate students from chemistry department are very welcome to visit our lab and contact Dr. Zi for more information about ongoing research projects.

Postdoctoral applicants: Send cover letter, CV, and three letters of recommendation to Dr. Zi.

Undergraduates: Interested sophomores or juniors should email Dr. Zi with a cover letter, CV, and three references.
