The University of New Mexico (UNM) received a $183,675 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities under the Integrative Activities federal grant program (CFDA 47.083). The award will support research by Professor Jeffrey Rack of UNM's Chemistry Department to develop new classes of iron complexes with interesting spectroscopic and magneto-optical properties for potential applications in photoactive materials. Specifically, Professor Rack and his research team will work to design novel photoactive iron complexes containing sulfoxide ligands and investigate the ability to achieve transient intermediate to high spin states on iron centers through photoinduced sulfoxide isomerization, which has not previously been demonstrated. The three-year project aims to address key scientific challenges in replicating this photochemistry on iron and further the understanding of organometallic chemistry. Broader impacts include providing research training for students and outreach activities involving local science teachers.
