Funded Activity Summary

Persistent Triplet Carbenes. Viable or Not? Triplet carbenes have significant potential real world applications, such as in modern electronics. However, they are highly reactive (lifetimes typically < 1 day), and this has stymied their development. Can I design so called persistent triplet-carbenes, which have significant lifetimes? I will try to using computer chemistry. In doing so, I will provide synthetic chemists with 'high-value' targets for preparation, hence saving tax dollars and minimizing creation of environmentally damaging waste.
