Funded Activity Summary

Advancing the Metal-Organic Chemistry of the Heavy Alkaline Earth Elements. The project will open up a new area in Australian metal based chemical research, deriving high value added products from the already existing exploitation of Australia's substantial alkaline earth metal mineral resources. Internationally recognised expertise in the design and manipulation of highly reactive chemical tools will contribute breakthrough science and innovation to the growing pharmaceutical, fine chemicals and smart materials industry, with the potential to provide nascent and established Australian companies a competitive edge in new product development. Students will be trained in the necessary skills to succeed in and expand such technically demanding area of metal based chemistry.
