The technique of X-ray crystallography is a powerful tool for                   the determination of the molecular structure of compounds as                    diverse as small polypeptides and complex metal clusters.  When                 combined with the latest computer software, the technique is                    becoming remarkably fast and easy to put into practice.  The                    acquisition of X-ray crystallographic instrumentation markedly                  improves the ability of chemists to carry out frontier research.                                                                                                The Department of Chemistry of the University of California,                    Davis will use this award from the Chemistry Shared                             Instrumentation Program to help acquire instrumentation for                     X-ray crystal structure determination.  The areas of chemistry                  that will be enhanced by the acquisition include the following:                                                                                                 1) Studies of transition metal complexes                                        2) Development of crystallographic methods                                      3) Synthetic chemistry, immunochemistry and plant biosynthesis                  4) Synthesis, structure and coordination properties of                             bidentate mesocycles                                                         5) Synthesis and structural characterization of sigma-bonded                       transition metal compounds with low oxidation states or                         coordination numbers                                                         6) Synthetic organic chemistry, mechanistic and synthetic                          organometallic chemistry
