The Richardson-Hough research partnership also observed that, if the quantity of pivaloyl chloride was raised to 7 equivalents and similar reaction conditions were applied, access to a partially pivaloylated trehalose having the 3- and 4 -hydroxyl groups free was gained in 38% yield, together with a symmetrical 2,3,6,2 3, 6 -hexapivalate, which was formed in 31% yield (Scheme 18).

Psychopharmacology research in children is designed to generate new knowledge and improve the outcomes for children who suffer from clinical conditions that warrant treatment. Such research relies upon partnerships among investigators, research partnerships, and society. But such research entails risks, so principles must be identified and carefully considered to simultaneously advance knowledge and protect research par-...

External research partnerships, properly designed and integrated into internal activities, can accelerate the new product development process. The time from idea stage to commercialization, with the proper commitments, can be reduced substantially, in some cases by 50 to 66 percent. Akzo Nobel... 

The polysaccharides in the raw materials need to be hydrolyzed before the sugar monomers canbe fermented to ethanol. Today, enzymatic hydrolysis is regarded as a method with great potential. One major obstacle to overcome is the high cost of cellulolytic enzymes. In 2001, the United States Department of Energy formed a contract with two commercial producers of cellulolytic enzymes in an attempt to achieve a 10-fold decrease in the cost of the cellulolytic enzymes (www.ott.doe.gov/ biofuels/research partnerships.html).

The third workshop of the Chemical Sciences Roundtable, Research Teams and Partnerships Trends in the Chemical Sciences, was held in Irvine, California, on May 2-3, 1999. The presentations and discussions at the workshop considered the current status of research partnerships in the chemical sciences and methods to improve the ability to form and maximize such collaborations. This volume presents the results of that workshop. 

Several of the presentations provided case studies in research partnerships, some from a university view (see Wakeham, Evans), others from industry (see Tao, Kohlbrand, Sloane), and still others from the federal government (see Jackson, Powell). In addition, various issues were raised that highlight the changing nature of research teams and the environment in which they are formed. Further elaboration on each of these points can be found in the accompanying chapters.
