Grant Program:
Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Unusual trisulfide chemistry
Purpose:
This project aims to investigate the mechanism of an unexpected reaction of trisulfides with common amide-containing solvents. Specifically, these solvents (such as dimethylformamide) were discovered to cleave S-S bonds in trisulfides and related polysulfides. This project expects to generate new knowledge in the understanding of the reaction mechanism and then use that understanding for useful chemistry. Expected outcomes of this project include a mechanistic understanding of a new reaction, and the use of this chemistry in polymer synthesis and polymer recycling. This project should provide significant benefits in new knowledge, as well as support new strategies in polymer synthesis and recycling to benefit the environment.
