In this project in the Inorganic, Bioinorganic and                              Organometallic Chemistry Program, Professor F. A. Cotton of                     Texas A & M Universsity will investigate the synthesis,                         structure, dynamics and reactivity of compounds containing                      multiple bonds between transition metals. Research in this area                 is important for the understanding of fundamental principles of                 bonding and reactivity in organometallic cluster molecules,                     which are in turn important in the area of organic reaction                     catalysis.                                                                                                                                                      Specific studies will include diruthenium and diosmium species,                 edge-sharing bioctahedral compounds, chiral molecules with                      multiple metal-metal bonds, compounds with new or rarer M-M                     multiple bonds such as V, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ir, the use of                        fluoroalkoxide ligands to change the properties of a variety of                 these compounds, organometallic and metal-hydrogen chemistry,                   and use of specialized X-ray (high pressure) and neutron                        (polarized beam) techniques for structural investigations.
