Time for a #GreenChemMoment! This week we're focusing on a solvent called cyclopentyl methyl ether. This solvent can be a more environmentally friendly alternative to high-boiling ethers like THF! #greenchemistry

Meet St. Elmo Brady. He was the first Black person to earn a PhD in chemistry in the United States. He went on to build chemistry curricula, faculty, programs and facilities at four major historically Black colleges and universities including @HowardU and @Fisk1866
