Highly Efficient and Versatile Synthesis of Polymeric Materials using Click Chemistry

有机和大分子化学项目支持加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的Craig J. Hawker教授，他建议彻底研究Click化学的发展，以合成新型聚合物材料。这项工作将推动点击化学从几个选择的反应到一个广泛的化学综合概念。点击化学的相对简单（非常高的产量，没有保护/去保护反应）将允许合成新的聚合物材料。此外，作者选择了合适的合作者来开展他的专业知识之外的研究方面。有机和大分子化学项目支持Craig J. Hawker教授，他将为点击反应开发无毒催化剂，这将是环保的，并将点击化学扩展到各种应用。点击化学的效率和定量产量将是工业界和学术界的一个有吸引力的选择。拟议的研究将通过有趣的合作和创造性的研究计划促进学习。研究生将从花2-3个月在合作者的实验室中受益匪浅。科学指导计划将帮助指导被忽视的少数族裔高中化学学生，也将使参与其中的研究生受益。

The Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program supports Professor Craig J. Hawker at the University of California- Santa Barbara who proposes to thoroughly investigate the development of Click chemistry for the synthesis of novel polymeric materials. This work will advance click chemistry from a few select reactions to a broadly integrated concept in chemistry. The relative simplicity of click chemistry (very high yields, no protection/deprotection reactions) will allow the synthesis of new polymeric materials. Additionally, the author has chosen appropriate collaborators to carry out aspects of the research outside his expertise.The Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program supports Professor Craig J. Hawker who will develop non-toxic catalysts for click reactions that will be environmentally friendly and extend click chemistry to a variety of applications. The efficiency and quantitative yields of click chemistry will be an appealing option to industry and academia. The proposed research will promote learning through interesting collaborations and a creative research plan. Graduate students will greatly benefit from spending 2-3 months at the laboratory of one of the collaborators. The Science Mentoring Program will help mentor high school chemistry students who are underrepresented minorities and will also benefit the graduate students involved.
