Stony Brook University, through The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, received an $800,566 project grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The award, effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031, supports the rational development of titanium-based photocatalysts for generating, utilizing, and controlling heteroatom-centered radicals. The research focuses on designing earth-abundant titanium catalysts capable of ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) excitation to drive high-energy chemical transformations of organic molecules, with tunable photophysical and photochemical properties enabling reactions through oxidizing chlorine and alkoxyl radicals for carbon-hydrogen and carbon-carbon bond formation. In addition to core research deliverables, the project incorporates substantial educational and workforce development components. These include expansion of an annual regional photochemistry symposium designed to foster collaboration and near-peer mentoring networks among students at primarily undergraduate institutions and major research universities, and development of a graduate-level photochemistry course that integrates interdisciplinary perspectives into modern chemical research. The integrated research and educational activities align with NSF's emphasis on advancing scientific knowledge while strengthening the nation's scientific workforce through institutional capacity building and student development initiatives.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
