Funded Activity Summary

Metal Complexes for Activation and Scission of Small, Multiply-Bonded Molecules. The immediate outcome of this work is a series of new metal complexes capable of selectively cleaving the strong bonds present in a number of small molecules of industrial and synthetic importance. These outcomes will have a significant impact on the development of both novel transition metal systems for synthetic chemistry and new industrial procedures for the activation and cleavage of multiply-bonded molecules such as molecular nitrogen and carbon dioxide. They will lead to new consumer products, better methods of production, and potential downstream applications such as nitric oxide/nitrogen dioxide converters and carbon dioxide emission controls.
