Full Description of Opportunity:
Supports research on the synthesis, properties, and reaction mechanisms of
molecules composed of metals, metalloids, and nonmetals with elements
covering the entire periodic table. Included are fundamental studies that
underscore (1) bioinorganic reactions, (2) homogeneous catalysis and
organometallic reactions, (3) photochemical and charge transfer processes,
and (4) studies aimed at the rational synthesis of new inorganic molecular
substances, self-assemblies, and nano-size materials with predictable
chemical, physical, and biological properties. Objectives are to provide
the basis for understanding (1) the function of metal ions in biological
systems, (2) the behavior of new inorganic materials and new industrial
catalysts, and (3) the systematic chemistry and behavior of most of the
elements and compounds in the environment. The program has links to other
programs within NSF that support chemistry research, including Solid State
Chemistry and Polymers (Materials Research Division, MPS Directorate);
Chemical Reaction Processes (Chemical and Transport Systems Division, ENG
Directorate); Biochemistry and Biophysics (Molecular and Cellular
Biosciences Division, BIO Directorate); and Geochemistry (Earth Sciences
Division, GEO Directorate).
