Study of Fluorine Compounds, Award in U.S. and Indian Currencies

描述：该项目支持印度昌迪加尔潘贾布大学化学系R.D.Verma博士和莫斯科爱达荷大学化学教授J.M.Shreve博士的合作研究。这项工作将侧重于氟化学，包括通过在特定已知化学物质中引入氟原子并表征由此产生的新材料来开发新的氟化合物。将通过红外、质量和核磁共振光谱技术进行表征。在农业、卫生和工业环境方面做出重大贡献的可能性很大。这项研究将需要更新昌迪加尔的设施，以处理涉及的困难化合物，包括特殊的玻璃和金属真空管路，以及适当的反应容器。除了在昌迪加尔和莫斯科的工作外，还将与普尔曼华盛顿州立大学的罗杰·威利特教授一起进行晶体结构研究。此外，图宾根大学将在海因茨·奥伯哈默教授的指导下，对任何感兴趣的小挥发性分子进行气体衍射研究范围：这个项目汇集了一位非常活跃和多产的印度化学家和一位资深的美洲科学家，世卫组织是该领域的专家，为印度的氟研究建立良好的研究能力。同时，这一领域将通过新化合物的生产及其特性而受益。这项研究可以使美国和印度在科学上受益，也可以将一些结果应用于农业、卫生或工业的商业用途。

Description: This project supports a collaborative research by Dr. R. D. Verma, Chemistry Department, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India and Dr. J. M. Shreeve, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Idaho, Moscow. The work will focus on fluorine chemistry including development of new fluorine compounds by introducing fluorine atoms to specific known chemicals and characterizing the resulting new materials. The characterization will be via infrared, mass, and NMR spectral techniques. The possibilities for major contributions in agricultural, health and industrial environments are large. This research will require updating facilities at Chandigarh to handle the difficult compounds involved, including special glass and metal vacuum lines, and appropriate reaction vessels. In addition to work in Chandigarh and Moscow, crystal structure studies will be carried with Professor Roger Willett at Washington State University in Pullman. Also gas diffraction studies on any small volatile molecules of interest will be carried out at The University of Tubingen under Professor Heinz Oberhammer Scope: This project brings together a very active and productive Indian chemist with a senior Anerican scientist, who is an expert in the field, to build up good research capability for fluorine research in India. Simultaneously the field will benefit through the production of new compounds and their characterization. This research could benefit the U.S. and India scientifically as well as by applicability of some of the results to commercial use in agriculture, health or industry.
