With this New award the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program supports the work of Dr. Mark S. Meier, and his collaborators Drs. H. Peter Spielmann and Robert C. Haddon in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Kentucky. The research aims to understand the reactivity of fullerene and its derivatives - using a combination of synthesis, 13C NMR of isotopically enriched compounds, and computational methods - to find correlations between site reactivity and NMR parameters for individual carbon atoms.The research will help to provide a basic theoretical understanding of the reactivity of an important class of organic compounds called fullerenes, so named because the basic building block of 60 carbon atoms has the same structure as the geodesic domes designed by the architect Buckminster Fuller. Compounds of this type are being investigated by many scientists for potential applications ranging from electronic materials and sensors to pharmaceuticals. The work will provide excellent training for the students involved in the areas of organic synthesis, theory, and spectroscopy.

有机和大分子化学计划通过这个新奖项支持马克·s·迈耶博士和他的合作者。H. Peter Spielmann和Robert C. Haddon来自肯塔基大学化学系。这项研究的目的是了解富勒烯及其衍生物的反应性——使用合成、同位素富集化合物的13C核磁共振和计算方法的组合——找到单个碳原子的反应性和核磁共振参数之间的相关性。这项研究将有助于对一类重要的有机化合物富勒烯的反应性提供基本的理论理解。富勒烯之所以被命名，是因为其60个碳原子的基本构成单元与建筑师巴克明斯特·富勒设计的测地圆顶结构相同。许多科学家正在研究这类化合物的潜在应用，从电子材料、传感器到制药。这项工作将为参与有机合成，理论和光谱学领域的学生提供良好的培训。
