Organic Chemistry of Hypervalent Compounds

在有机和高分子化学项目的支持下，明尼苏达大学杜卢斯化学系的Viktor V. Zhdankin教授正在探索碘和铋的高价化合物的化学。他的研究包括制备和结构表征的新类别的高价碘和铋含杂环，评估合成方法的有机衍生物的七价碘，并开发新的合成方法的基础上高价碘络合物，碘杂环，氨基酸衍生的高价碘二羧酸盐，和磷烷衍生的碘烷。有机和高分子化学计划为杜卢斯明尼苏达大学化学系的Viktor V. Zhdankin教授的研究工作提供了新的支持。通过研究含碘或铋化合物的新结构类型，Zhdankin教授将增强我们对这些不寻常化合物的结构和反应性的理解，开发新的有机合成试剂和程序，并寻找具有不寻常和有用特性的新化合物。这些研究将主要由明尼苏达大学杜卢斯分校的本科生进行。

With the support of the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program, Professor Viktor V. Zhdankin, of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Minnesota, Duluth, is exploring the chemistry of hypervalent compounds of iodine and bismuth. His studies include the preparation and structural characterization of new classes of hypervalent iodine- and bismuth-containing heterocycles, the evaluation of synthetic approaches to organic derivatives of heptavalent iodine, and the development of new synthetic methodologies based on hypervalent iodine complexes, iodine heterocycles, amino acid-derived hypervalent iodine dicarboxylates, and phosphorane-derived iodanes.With this Research in Undergraduate Institutions award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program is providing renewed support for the research efforts of Professor Viktor V. Zhdankin, of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. Through the study of new structural types of compounds containing iodine or bismuth, Professor Zhdankin will enhance our understanding of the structure and reactivity of these unusual compounds, develop new reagents and procedures for organic synthesis, and search for new compounds with unusual and useful properties. These studies will be carried out primarily by undergraduate students from the University of Minnesota, Duluth.
