CAREER: Synthesis of Carbon-Rich Organometallic Objects and Cyclic Starmacromolecules

本论文的研究重点是合成一系列多环炔桥联金属有机化合物。目标分子代表有机金属富勒烯链段和有机分枝二炔的杂交物。它们作为电活性和极多孔的有机金属材料引起了人们的极大兴趣。含钴或铁、高度不饱和的大分子有机金属的热解裂解将导致新型金属-碳固体的形成。所提出的富碳有机金属的高温热解可能导致纳米管的形成，从而绕过了气相条件的使用。该项目的教育部分将包括课程开发，重点是网络的使用。有了这个职业奖，有机和高分子化学项目将支持南卡罗来纳大学化学和生物化学系的Uwe H.Bunz博士的研究和教育活动。邦兹教授将把研究重点放在有机金属化合物的制备上，目标是构建富勒炔链段和新的含金属材料。材料的热解可作为制备纳米管的一种方法。所提出的富碳化合物作为未来在电子和光子器件中应用的新一代先进材料引起了人们的极大兴趣。该项目的教育部分将强调在课程开发中使用网络。

The focus of this research is preparation of a series of polycyclic alkyne-bridged organometallic compounds. The target molecules represent hybrids of organometallic fullerenyne segments and the organic graphydiyne. They are of high interest as electro-active and extremely porous organometallic materials. The pyrolysis pyrolysis of large, alkyne-bridged cobalt- or iron-containing, highly unsaturated organometallics should lead to the formation of novel metal-carbon solids. The high-temperature pyrolysis of the proposed carbon-rich organometallics could lead to the formation of nanotubes, circumventing the use of gas phase conditions. The educational portion of the project will include curriculum development with a strong emphasis on the use of the Web.With this CAREER award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program is supporting the research and educational activities of Dr. Uwe H. Bunz of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of South Carolina. Professor Bunz will focus his research on the preparation of organometallic compounds with the goal of constructing fullerenyne-segments and new metal-containing materials. Pyrolysis of the materials could serve as a method for the preparation of nanotubes. Carbon-rich compounds of the types proposed are of great interest as a new generation of advanced materials for future applications in electronic and photonic devices. The educational portion of the project will stress use of the Web in course development.
