This $600,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research by Dr. Hoye and his team at the University of Minnesota. The goal is to capitalize on the reactivity of alkyne compounds to fuel the generation of reactive organic intermediates, which can then be used to synthesize new molecules with potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or electronic/photonic devices. Key activities...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $660,000 Project Grant under the CFDA 47.049 Mathematical and Physical Sciences program to the Regents of the University of Minnesota. The 5-year grant, commencing on July 1, 2024, supports Professor Engelhart's research into new chemical reactions catalyzed by RNA and heme enzymes that form carbon-halogen bonds. The project aims to characterize the range of heme ribozyme-catalyzed halogenation reactions and discover new heme-binding ribozymes that...
Regents of the University of Minnesota received a $520,000 three-year Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049). Through this award, Professor C. Daniel Frisbie and students will conduct research to better understand the mechanisms of electrical conduction in organic semiconductors and explore how the chemical structure of these materials influences their electrical...
