The focus of this research is the preparation of bowl-shaped polyarenes by the use of flash vacuum pyrolysis. The target molecules include a number of `fullerene fragments` and `bucky tubes.` Studies on the targets to assess bowl-to-bowl inversion barriers and the acid-base chemistry of the concave surfaces of the molecules will also be conducted. With this renewal award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program is supporting the research of Dr. Lawrence T. Scott of the Department of Chemistry at Boston College. Professor Scott will focus his work on the molecular design, synthesis and study of polyarenes that adopt unusual bowl-shaped molecular geometries resembling those of fullerene surfaces. The remarkable ability of of this class of compounds to temporarily store electrons has stimulated interest in possible use as new materials for light-weight batteries.

本研究的重点是碗状聚芳烃的制备 通过使用快速真空热解。 靶分子包括 “富勒烯碎片”和“巴基管”的数量。目标研究 以评估碗到碗倒置障碍和酸碱化学， 分子的凹面也将被传导。 有了这个更新奖，有机和高分子化学计划 是支持劳伦斯·T博士的研究斯科特的部门 波士顿大学化学系。 斯科特教授将把他的工作重点放在 采用特殊结构的聚芳烃的分子设计、合成与研究 类似富勒烯表面的碗状分子几何形状。 这类化合物具有暂时储存 电子激发了人们对可能用作新材料的兴趣， 轻量电池。
