- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $287,110 to Hamilton College to develop a new class of chemical compounds called N-quaternized ketene N,O-acetals. These compounds, which were previously considered too unstable for practical use, have recently been made synthetically accessible through the principal investigator's research. The goal of this project is to expand the utility of these compounds in...
