Metal-boron bonding holds enormous technological importance due to the emergence of boron-based metal-mediated synthetic transformations that access a diversity of high value-added fine chemicals. Whilst Australia boasts an emergent boron-based fine chemicals industry, no research program into the nature of metal boron bonding exists to provide either fundamental science or advanced training in organometallic boron chemistry. The proposed work offers two distinct national benefits: The maintenance of a discipline in which Australia leads the world (metallaboratranes) and the genesis of one, which whilst intensely studied elsewhere, is notably absent from the Australian science base (low coordinate, unsaturated boron chemistry).

金属-硼键合具有巨大的技术重要性，因为硼基金属介导的合成转化的出现，可以获得多种高附加值的精细化学品。虽然澳大利亚拥有一个新兴的硼基精细化学品工业，但没有研究计划研究金属硼键合的性质，以提供有机金属硼化学的基础科学或高级培训。拟议的工作提供了两个不同的国家利益：维护澳大利亚领导世界的学科（金属硼杂环丁烷）和一个的起源，虽然在其他地方进行了深入研究，但澳大利亚科学基础（低坐标，不饱和硼化学）明显缺席。
