The Inorganic, Bioinorganic and Organometallic Chemistry Program supports the research of Tong Ren, Department of Chemistry, University of Miami, investigating highly conjugated oligomeric diruthenium metallaynes. These consist of diruthenium "paddle wheels" alternating with polyalkynes. The diruthenium unit is supported by bridging ligands such as 2-anilinopyridinate, N,N'diarylformamidinate, or N, N'-dimethylbenzamidinate. These dimers are linked by two, four, or six carbon bridges. The ruthenium units may improve electronic communication and delocalization in the oligomer. The multiple redox states accessible by these metal-metal bonded species allows interesting magnetic, electrophoric and chromophoric properties. Ren is also investigating the use of terminally functionalized oligomers that serve as molecular "alligator clips", making a nanoscale electrical connection.These compounds are being studied as potential "molecular wires", single molecules that can conduct electricity in a nanosized electronic circuit. Fundamental studies of electronic communication and conductance in these molecules may lead to molecular electronic devices. Scientists working on this project will learn modern synthetic and characterization skills as well as nanopatterning and nanojunction techniques.

无机、生物无机和有机化学项目支持迈阿密大学化学系的Tong Ren的研究，研究高度共轭的低聚二钌金属。这些由双钌“桨轮”与聚炔交替组成。二钌单元由桥接配体如2-苯胺基吡啶酸酯、N，N ′-二芳基甲脒基酯或N，N ′-二甲基苯甲脒基酯负载。这些二聚体通过两个、四个或六个碳桥连接。钌单元可以改善低聚物中的电子通信和离域。通过这些金属-金属键合的物种可获得的多个氧化还原状态允许有趣的磁性、电致和发色性质。任正非还在研究末端官能化的低聚物的用途，这种低聚物可以作为分子“鳄鱼夹”，制造纳米级的电连接。这些化合物正在被研究作为潜在的“分子导线”，即可以在纳米级电子电路中导电的单分子。对这些分子中电子通讯和电导的基础研究可能会导致分子电子器件。从事该项目的科学家将学习现代合成和表征技能以及纳米图案化和纳米结技术。
