Synthetic Organosulfur Chemistry

这个项目的重点是硫和硒的有机化合物的化学。广泛研究各种S-和se杂环的化学和物理性质。具体的方法学研究包括针对开发用于Diels-Alder反应中作为累积烯当量的多官能团磺酰基的研究。几个有趣的天然产物是全合成的目标，以探索围绕含有多个硫基官能团的化合物的操纵问题。有了这个奖项，有机和大分子化学项目继续支持纽约州立大学奥尔巴尼分校埃里克·布洛克教授的研究。布洛克教授探索含有硫和硒原子的有机分子的化学性质。这种分子可以用来修饰其他有机化合物的结构，并且在自然界中也有发现。对这些分子新形式的进一步研究将发现新的有用的反应和试剂。为了更多地了解如何在可能有多个硫原子的分子上进行反应，将合成几种天然存在的化合物。

This project focuses on the chemistry of organic compounds of sulfur and selenium. Broad studies of the chemical and physical properties of a variety of S- and Se-heterocycles will be carried out. Specific methodological studies include those directed toward the development of polyfunctional sulfonylethenes for use as cumulene equivalents in Diels-Alder reactions. Several interesting natural products are targeted for total synthesis to explore issues surrounding the manipulation of compounds containing multiple sulfur-based functional groups.With this Award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program continues its support for the research of Professor Eric Block of the State University of New York at Albany. Professor Block explores the chemistry of organic molecules containing sulfur and selenium atoms. Such molecules can be used to modify the structures of other organic compounds and are also found in nature. Further study of novel forms of these molecules will uncover new and useful reactions and reagents. Several naturally occuring compounds will be synthesized in order to learn more about how to carry out reactions on molecules that may have more than one sulfur atom.
