Christopher Masi serves as a Professor in the Department of Chemical and Physical Sciences at Westfield State University, where he has been a faculty member since Fall 2002. His teaching portfolio includes General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry I (CHEM 201), Organic Chemistry II (CHEM 203), and Advanced Inorganic Chemistry (CHEM 0211), alongside supervising undergraduate research experiences (CHEM 0350).
His academic background features a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (2003) and an A.B. from the College of the Holy Cross (1990).
Research centers on organometallic chemistry with emphasis on carbon dioxide activation mechanisms using transition metal complexes, alongside innovative applications of gas chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in undergraduate laboratory pedagogy. This dual focus bridges fundamental inorganic research with practical chemistry education reform.
His publication record includes a 2012 Journal of Organometallic Chemistry article examining rhenium carbonyl complexes and biologically relevant amine interactions, demonstrating expertise in metal-ligand coordination chemistry within aqueous biological contexts.
