AbstractWith the support of the Chemical Structure, Dynamics and Mechanism-B and Chemical Catalysis Programs in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Steven Kass of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Minnesota is developing new classes of positively charged ions that only weakly interact with negatively charged ions. The goal of this research is to create practical, useful, and environmentally friendly catalysts and chemical reagents by breaking the paradigm that opposites attract. Since th
