The University of Delaware received a $500,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry to develop metal catalyzed methods for the preparation of organosilanes and related molecules. The three-year award, which runs from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2024, will support research under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). This program aims to promote progress in the mathematical and physical sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise by increasing scientific knowledge and enhancing understanding of major problems confronting the nation. The University of Delaware will leverage the funding to advance the synthesis of organosilanes and related compounds through metal-catalyzed reactions, generating new knowledge that furthers scientific understanding and capabilities in chemistry.
