Ames National Laboratory

Ames National Laboratory is a government-owned, contractor-operated national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), operated by and located on the campus of Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa.

For more than 70 years, the Ames National Laboratory has successfully partnered with Iowa State University, and is unique among the 17 DOE laboratories in that it is physically located on the campus of a major research university. Many of the scientists and administrators at the Laboratory also hold faculty positions at the University and the Laboratory has access to both undergraduate and graduate student talent.

Organizational Unit
Chemistry

The Department of Chemistry seeks to provide students with a foundation in the fundamentals and application of chemical theories and processes of the lab. Thus prepared they me pursue careers as teachers, industry supervisors, or research chemists in a variety of domains (governmental, academic, etc).

History
The Department of Chemistry was founded in 1880.

Dates of Existence
1880-present

Abstract

Ab initio geometry optimizations for a series of azatitanatranes, ZTi[−NR(CH2)2−]3N, (Z = CH3, NH2, OH, F, and N(CH3)2; R = H and CH3), have been performed. An analysis of the transannular Ti−N interaction indicates that it is significantly stronger than that found in the analogous azasilatranes. Of special significance in this calculation is the fact that theory correctly predicts that the axial Ti−N bond is shorter than the equatorial Ti−N bonds.
