This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). In this RUI project funded by the Inorganic, Bioinorganic, and Organometallic Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division, Joseph Tanski of Vassar College will develop improved methods for stereoselective methylation using matched sets of chiral ligands in a catalytic system (double diastereoselectivity). Three classes of chiral chelating ligands will be synthesized, and their complexes with homoleptic titanium, scandium or ytterbium chiral alkoxides will be prepared and characterized. These complexes will then be screened in methylations of aldehydes, and structure-activity relationships will be developed. This research will impact the field of asymmetric catalysis, which is important in the chemical synthesis and pharmaceutical industries. This project also will impact the education of undergraduate students by exposing them to the field of asymmetric catalysis and by providing them with training in structure determination using X-ray diffraction methods.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111 - 5）资助的。 在这个由化学系无机，生物无机和有机化学项目资助的RUI项目中，Vassar学院的Joseph Tanski将开发改进的方法，用于在催化体系中使用手性配体的匹配组进行立体选择性甲基化（双非对映选择性）。 将合成三类手性螯合配体，并制备和表征它们与均配钛、钪或镱手性醇盐的配合物。 这些配合物，然后将在醛的甲基化反应中进行筛选，并将开发的结构-活性关系。 这项研究将影响不对称催化领域，这在化学合成和制药工业中很重要。 该项目还将影响本科生的教育，使他们接触到不对称催化领域，并为他们提供使用X射线衍射方法进行结构测定的培训。
