Transition metal complexes have found use in a wide variety of applications ranging from light-emitting devices to biological imaging and solar catalysis. However, these materials commonly contain precious metals such as platinum, ruthenium and iridium which are not only expensive but are some of the rarest elements found on Earth. This project will develop new transformative photo-active molecules containing the cheap, Earth-abundant element chromium. These materials will ultimately be used to catalyse useful organic reactions driven only by solar energy, thereby making substantial contributions to the development of inexpensive and environmentally friendly chemical synthesis.

过渡金属复合物已在从发光设备到生物成像和太阳催化的多种应用中发现。但是，这些材料通常含有贵金属，例如铂，唯一和虹膜，它们不仅昂贵，而且是地球上最稀有的元素。该项目将开发新的变革性光活性分子，其中包含廉价的，丰富的元素铬。这些材料最终将用于催化仅由太阳能驱动的有机有机反应，从而为廉价且环保化学合成的发展做出了重大贡献。
