Professor Andrew B. Bocarsly of Princeton University is supported by the Inorganic, Bioinorganic and Organometallic Chemistry program to explore the rational synthesis of cyanogels - a class of coordination polymers based on the reactivity of cyanometalate transtion metal complexes that form as hydrogels from aqueous solution. Cyanogel processing provides a new synthetic avenue to the development of metal alloy systems and thus, these novel materials will be investigated in terms of their interesting magnetic properties and potential to act as cellular building blocks. In a separate thrust, the direct microwave processing of the cyanogel systems will be developed and the mechanism of metal formation will studied. Synthetic advantage will be taken of the faster processing times and unique absorption of 12 cm microwaves to form zerogel and aerogel states. New morphologies are expected to lead to new materials properties such as superparamagnetic and nanometric particles. This project will provide undergraduate and graduate students with an excellent introduction to interdisciplinary research. This project will also impact K-12 education in the greater Princeton, NJ area as Professor Bocarsly is actvely involved in a variety of K-12 outreach programs including the directorship of the NY/NJ Partners in Science Program, a six university consortium, that bring high school science teachers into research labs as active researchers for two consecutive summers. Professor Bocarsly also utilizes the results of his cyanogel research in his role as a science advisor to the West Windsor-Painsboro Regional School disctrict through such programs as the NSF sponsored E=mc2 inquiry-based science program, and Princeton University's Quest program. It is estimated that approximately 500 K-12 student per year are impacted by Professor Bocarsly's actvities in these programs.

普林斯顿大学的Andrew B. Bocarsly教授得到了无机，生物有机和有机金属化学计划的支持，以探索Cyanogels的合理合成，这是基于氰酸酯transtion transtion金属复合物的反应性的一类坐标聚合物，这些反应性是从水溶液溶液中形成的水​​凝胶。 Cyanogel加工为金属合金系统的开发提供了一种新的合成途径，因此，这些新型材料将根据其有趣的磁性和作为细胞构建块的潜力进行研究。 在另一个推力中，将开发出蓝凝凝胶系统的直接微波处理，并将研究金属形成的机理。将对更快的处理时间和12 cm微波的独特吸收来获得合成优势，以形成Zerogel和气凝胶状态。 预计新的形态会导致新材料特性，例如超磁和纳米颗粒。该项目将为本科生和研究生提供很好的跨学科研究的介绍。 该项目还将影响新泽西州大普林斯顿地区的K-12教育，因为Bocarsly教授参与了各种K-12的外展计划，包括纽约/NJ合作伙伴在科学计划（六个大学财团）中的董事职位，该计划将高中科学教师带入了两个连续夏季的研究实验室。 Bocarsly教授还利用了他的Cyanogel Research的结果，担任West Windsor-Painsboro区域学校的科学顾问，通过NSF赞助的E =基于MC2询问的科学计划和普林斯顿大学的任务计划等计划。 据估计，在这些计划中，每年约有500 k-12学生受到Bocarsly教授的影响。
