Funded Activity Summary

An Integrated Synthetic and NMR Spectroscopic Study of Photochemical Organometallic Bond Activation. Modifications of alkanes and related processes under study will occupy the heart of next generation catalysed chemical processes that may ultimately be used globally on a vast scale. A detailed knowledge of mechanism is the precursor to rational design and improvement of catalysed processes, making them more efficient and greener. This will allow better usage of Australia's natural gas and precious metal resources and benefit local chemical companies. Specialized new NMR technology that will greatly aid a wide range of local researchers will be developed to facilitate these studies. The researchers of the future will also be trained.
