Catalysts allow the low energy production of desirable materials and thus such technologies are greener strategies to modern and innovative products. Dr. Stephans research targets new process technologies to such desirable chemicals, materials and polymers by developing new low cost, readily available main group catalysts. The discovery that metal-free hydrogenations can be effected by frustrated Lewis pairs together with the recent discovery of phosphonium-based Lewis acids are promising avenues for the development of a variety new commercial applications in pharmaceuticals, commodity chemicals, materials and polymers production.

催化剂允许低能量生产所需的材料，因此这些技术是现代和创新产品的绿色战略。Stephans博士的研究目标是通过开发新的低成本，易于获得的主族催化剂，为这些理想的化学品，材料和聚合物提供新的工艺技术。 不含金属的氢化反应可以通过受抑的刘易斯对来实现的发现，以及最近发现的基于膦的刘易斯酸，是在药物、日用化学品、材料和聚合物生产中开发各种新的商业应用的有希望的途径。
