The University of Washington was awarded a $500,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) to support research titled "NEW CATALYTIC TRANSFORMATIONS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF ALKENES AND ORGANOBORON COMPOUNDS" from July 15, 2021 to June 30, 2024.

The grant funding will support the University's research efforts to advance the synthesis of alkenes and organoboron compounds through new catalytic transformations. The Mathematical and Physical Sciences grant program aims to strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise by increasing fundamental knowledge in major problem areas like chemistry. The University of Washington will leverage the three years of NSF funding to advance scientific understanding of catalytic processes for synthesizing important classes of organic compounds.
