In this project, innovative approaches will be employed to access new, and fundamentally important, classes of low oxidation state main group compounds, the electronic properties and reactivity of which will be readily tuned to mimic those of noble transition metal complexes. The project aims to harness these attributes, for the first time, to establish such compounds as cheap and sustainable alternatives to the expensive and toxic transition metal catalysts that are currently essential to numerous synthetic processes utilised in academia and industry. The involvement of a synergistic international network of collaborators will be central to the success of this project, which offers major academic, environmental and economic benefits to Australia.

在这个项目中，创新的方法将被用来获得新的，从根本上重要的，低氧化态主族化合物的类别，其电子性质和反应性将很容易调整，以模仿贵过渡金属络合物。该项目旨在利用这些属性，首次建立此类化合物作为昂贵和有毒的过渡金属催化剂的廉价和可持续替代品，这些催化剂目前对学术界和工业界使用的许多合成工艺至关重要。一个协同的国际合作者网络的参与将是该项目成功的关键，该项目为澳大利亚提供了重大的学术、环境和经济利益。
