Dear Colleague, The Collaborative Research in Chemistry (CRC) Program was created in 2001 to support collaborative research at the forefront of chemistry. At this time, the Division of Chemistry has decided to move collaborative research proposals back into the disciplinary "core" of chemistry and review these proposals in the context of other proposals (individual and collaborative) submitted to a disciplinary program. Collaborative proposals may be submitted to any of the Chemistry Disciplinary Research Programs (Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry; Inorganic, Bioinorganic and Organometallic Chemistry; Analytical and Surface Chemistry; Physical Chemistry) during the usual Chemistry proposal submission windows. These proposals may be co-reviewed by several Chemistry programs or by Chemistry in partnership with other NSF divisions. Principal Investigators considering submitting a collaborative proposal are strongly urged to contact a cognizant program officer. Contact information is available at the NSF Division of Chemistry website. Luis Echegoyen Director, Division of Chemistry

Apply to PD 07-3903 as follows:
For full proposals submitted via FastLane:
standard Grant Proposal Guidelines apply.
For full proposals submitted via Grants.gov:
NSF Grants.gov Application Guide; A Guide for the Preparation and Submission of NSF Applications via Grants.gov Guidelines apply
(Note: The NSF Grants.gov Application Guide is available on the Grants.gov website and on the NSF website at:
http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=grantsgovguide)
Please be advised that the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) includes
revised guidelines to implement the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act (ACA)
(Pub. L. No. 110-69, Aug. 9, 2007.) As specified in the ACA, each proposal that requests
funding to support postdoctoral researchers must include a description of the mentoring
activities that will be provided for such individuals. Proposals that do not comply
with this requirement will be returned without review (see the PAPP Guide Part I:
Grant Proposal Guide Chapter II for further information about the implementation of
this new requirement).
SYNOPSIS
![](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/eot2008/20090512113948im_/http://nsf.gov/images/bluefade.jpg)
Organic Chemical DynamicsSupports research that will advance the knowledge of carbon-based molecules, metallo-organic systems, and organized molecular assemblies. Experimental, computational, and theoretical projects that illuminate chemical structures, reactivity, and properties and that provide organic mechanistic, structural, and kinetic foundations for the understanding of biological processes are all considered. 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 Atmospheric Chemistry (Atmospheric Sciences Division, GEO Directorate). Organic SynthesisSupports research on the synthesis of carbon-based molecules, organometallic systems, and organized molecular assemblies. Research includes the development of new reagents and methods for organic synthesis and characterization, and the investigation of natural products and new organic materials. Such research provides the basis for designed syntheses of new materials and natural products important to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The research has links to other programs within NSF that support chemistry research, including Biochemistry (Molecular and Cellular Biosciences Division, BIO Directorate) and Polymers (Materials Research Division, MPS Directorate).
