This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), provides $437,828 to Professor Timothy Jackson of the University of Kansas for research into new manganese-hydroperoxo and manganese-alkylperoxo complexes from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2025. The research aims to characterize these complexes, which mimic intermediates in metalloenzyme catalysts, to understand how to control their reactions and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $250,000 to Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan. The funding supports research by Professor Zacharias Kinney and his students to develop new organic macrocycles and metallomacrocycles as photoactive materials with unique optoelectronic properties. The research aims to improve understanding of structure-property relationships in photoactive materials containing...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $365,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to Macalester College. The grant supports Professor Dennis Cao's research on developing a class of organic dye compounds that interact with near-infrared light. The goal is to unlock design principles for organic dyes that can harvest solar energy outside the visible light spectrum and/or serve as imaging agents for living tissue. The research activities in...
This $450,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Cornell University from August 2022 to July 2025 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). Principal Investigator Kyle Lancaster and his team are developing new classes of two- and pseudo-one-coordinate transition metal complexes with applications as catalysts and for data storage technologies. Specifically, the researchers aim to synthesize hetero-leptic transition metal complexes using...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $214,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to Colby College in Waterville, Maine. The grant supports a research project led by Professor Dasan Thamattoor and his undergraduate student team to investigate the structure and reactivity of reactive chemical intermediates and unusual molecules generated from phenanthrene-based precursors. The research will utilize experimental methods such as photolysis,...
This Project Grant award of $249,668, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports Professor Blakely Tresca and students at Kalamazoo College in developing self-assembled diyne peptoid nanomaterials for sensing applications. The key objectives are to synthesize 1,3-diyne peptoids, characterize their reactivity and self-assembly properties, and explore their potential as integrated platforms for colorimetric or...
This $600,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will support research at the University of Michigan and Trinity University to investigate the structural and electronic properties of high-valent cobalt, nickel, and copper-oxo complexes. The project aims to improve understanding of how metal-oxo versus metal-oxyl character impacts the stability and reactivity of these unstable, yet potentially useful,...
This $375,699 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports research at Bard College to synthesize and characterize cyclometalated platinum(IV) compounds. The research team, led by Professor Craig M. Anderson, will investigate the photophysical properties of these compounds and explore molecular design strategies to improve their performance for potential applications as sensors or devices. A key component of...
This $391,121 National Science Foundation project grant supports collaborative research between Marquette University and the Colorado School of Mines under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The three-year award will fund mechanistic studies of iron-type nitrile hydration catalysts through a combination of experimental and computational approaches. Researchers will employ kinetic, spectroscopic, biochemical, computational, and X-ray crystallographic methods to detect...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $579,805 Project Grant to the University of Chicago under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The grant supports research by the Anderson group to design and synthesize a new class of oxidatively robust ligand frameworks containing strongly donating carbenes. This will enable the study of extremely reactive high-valent metal-oxo, metal-nitrene, and metal-carbene complexes and their applications in catalytic group transfer...
