This three-year, $1.2 million Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research into controlling the excited state dynamics of ruthenium (II) complexes for dual activity. The Ohio State University will synthesize new ligands and ruthenium complexes to be characterized for their chemical and biological properties. Texas A&M University and Wayne State University will receive sub-awards to contribute to the project. Texas A&M will synthesize ruthenium complexes and instruct a graduate student on synthesis and characterization techniques. Wayne State will synthesize new ligands and complexes and characterize some of their chemical and biological properties. The goals of the grant are aligned with the stated purpose of the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program to strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through advancing knowledge in the mathematical and physical sciences.
