US-Germany Cooperative Research: Pyrazole-Based Expanded Porphyrins

0321652Bruckner该奖项与德国哥廷根大学无机化学系的FrancMeyer合作，为PI和康涅狄格大学的学生提供支持。通过合作，研究人员将合成能够以明确和可预测的方向结合两个金属中心的新型扩展卟啉。这一结果将为制备具有独特配位和光物理性质的扩展卟啉提供一种新的方法，并具有广泛的潜在应用前景。合作的预期互惠科学和教育利益是相当可观的。该项目汇集了在吡咯/卟啉(美国组)和吡唑基化学(德国组)方面拥有丰富经验的两个小组，以开发可能在杂环和配位化学方面提供独特视角的新的吡咯/吡唑杂化体系。该项目还通过研究生和博士后研究员的参与促进国际人力资源，从而促进全球参与的工作队伍的发展。合作工作的科学方面将对大西洋两岸博士生的广泛教育具有极高的价值，并将加强两个群体的研究努力。

0321652BrucknerThis award supports the PI and students from University of Connecticut in a collaboration with Franc Meyer of the Department of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Goettingen, Germany. Through the collaboration, the researchers will synthesize novel expanded porphyrins capable of binding two metal centers in a well-defined and predictable orientation. The results will contribute to the field by offering a new method for producing expanded porphyrins with unique coordination and photophysical properties and numerous potential applications. The expected mutual scientific and educational benefits of the collaboration are considerable. The project brings together two groups with vast experience in pyrrolic/porphyrins (US group) and pyrazole-based chemistry (German group) to develop new pyrrole/pyrazole hybrid systems that might offer unique perspectives in heterocyclic and coordination chemistry.The project also advances international human resources through the participation of graduate students and post-doctoral fellows, thereby contributing to the development of a globally engaged work force. The scientific aspects of the collaborative work will be highly valuable for the broad education of the PhD students on both sides of the Atlantic and will strengthen the research efforts of both groups.
