U.S.-France Cooperative Research: Effects of Peripheral Substituents on Physical-Chemical Characteristics of CPD I Analogs

9314422金奖这个为期三年的奖项支持美国、法国和德国在无机化学领域的合作研究，涉及美国和欧洲的四个实验室。主要研究人员是：北卡罗来纳大学的Avram Gold；弗吉尼亚联邦大学的James Terner；法国斯特拉斯堡巴斯德大学的Raymond Weiss；以及德国吕贝克大学物理研究所所长A.X.Trautwein。他们的研究目的是研究外围取代基对合成的高价铁卟啉的分子和电子结构的影响。这些实验室将提供补充技术来表征起始络合物和高价物种。美国研究人员是使用核磁共振和共振拉曼光谱合成、生成和表征这些化合物的专家。此外，法国在合成方面的专业知识和德国在X射线结晶学和电化学研究方面的专业知识也是相辅相成的。该项目将促进对高价铁卟啉的理解，高价铁卟啉是酶系统催化的重要中介。***

9314422 Gold This three-year award, which supports U.S.-France-German cooperative research in inorganic chemistry, involves four laboratories in the U.S. and Europe. The principal investigators are: Avram Gold of the University of North Carolina; James Terner of Virginia Commonwealth University; Raymond Weiss of the Universite Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg, France; and A. X. Trautwein, Director of the Institute of Physics, University of Lubeck in Germany. The objective of their research is to study the effects of peripheral substituents on the molecular and electronic structure of synthetic, high valent iron porphyrin. The laboratories will contribute complementary techniques towards characterizing the starting complexes and the high-valent species. The U.S. investigators are experts in the synthesis, generation, and characterizations of these compounds using NMR and resonance Raman spectroscopy. This is complemented by French expertise in synthesis and German expertise in x-ray crystallography and electrochemical studies. The project will advance understanding of high valent iron porphyrin, which is an important intermediary in the catalysis of enzymatic systems. ***
