Chemistry of Organic Sulphur, Selenium, and Tellurium Compounds

本研究的重点是硫醌类、硫基磺烯类、硫基磺烯类、非经典噻吩类和噻吩基大环的制备。研究结果将有助于更好地理解这些化合物的性质，并将其应用于合成金属、超导体和非线性光学材料领域的有机材料设计。有了这个奖项，有机和大分子化学项目将继续支持阿拉巴马大学化学系的Michael P. Cava教授和M.V. Lakshmikantham教授的研究。Cava教授和Lakshmikantham教授将把他们的工作重点放在有可能在合成金属、导电聚合物和非线性光学领域应用的化合物的制备上。

The focus of this research is the preparation of thioquinones, chalcogenofulvenes, chalcogenofulvalenes, nonclassical thiophenes and thiophene-based macrocycles. Results will lead to a better understanding of the properties of such compounds and subsequent application to the design of organic materials in the area of synthetic metals, superconductors and materials with nonlinear optical properties.With this award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program continues support for the research of Professors Michael P. Cava and M.V. Lakshmikantham of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alabama. Professors Cava and Lakshmikantham will focus their work on the preparation of compounds that have the potential to lead to application in the areas of synthetic metals, conducting polymers and nonlinear optics.
