This award in the Chemical Synthesis (SYN) program supports work by Professor Philip P. Power at the University of California, Davis to carry out fundamental studies on the reversible reactions of unsaturated molecules with multiple bonded heavier main group and transition metal species. These studies focus on how small molecules containing multiple bonds interact in reversible processes with a group of elements that have not been well studied up to now. Examples of the small unsaturated (that is, multiple bonded) molecules to be studied include ethylenes, acetylenes, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. These molecules are of great importance in industrial catalytic cycles which usually use transition metal compounds of metals such as titanium, rhodium or platinum as catalysts.The studies will focus on abundant and inexpensive elements such as aluminum or silicon whose use may achieve better catalysis together with energy savings. In addition, the award supports the training of several undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in numerous practical research skills as well as in independent scientific thinking.

化学合成（SYN）计划中的这一奖项支持加州大学戴维斯分校的Philip P. Power教授的工作，对具有多个键合的较重主基和过渡金属物种的不饱和分子的可逆反应进行基础研究。这些研究的重点是如何包含多个键的小分子在可逆过程中与一组尚未得到很好研究的元素相互作用。要研究的不饱和（即多重键合）小分子的例子包括乙烯、乙炔、一氧化碳和二氧化碳。这些分子在工业催化循环中非常重要，通常使用金属如钛、铑或铂的过渡金属化合物作为催化剂。研究将集中在丰富和廉价的元素如铝或硅，它们的使用可以实现更好的催化和节能。此外，该奖项还支持多名本科生和研究生以及博士后研究员在众多实践研究技能以及独立科学思维方面的培训。
