This proposal requests funds to support a research program aimed at advancing our understanding of the way in which a group of chemical entities called "ligands" interact with metals. In addition to making fundamental discoveries and contributing to the progress of science, we also hope to put to use the type of metal-ligand interactions we study for inventing processes that will make possible useful chemical transformations. This program falls in the general area of organometallic chemistry. As the name implies, the central theme of this area of scholarship revolves around the combination of metallic elements and organic molecules and the different properties of such organometallic compounds. Organometallic compounds are involved in many large scale commercial processes for the production of commodities such as acetic acid (the main ingredient of vinegar), industrial alcohols and acids, polyester, polyethylene, and even some medications. In most cases, the commercial viability and competitiveness of these processes is due to the phenomenon of catalysis, that is the use of a small quantity of key chemical transformers to produce a very large quantity of products. Canada enjoys a competitive position among industrialized nations in organometallic chemistry and in catalysis.

该提案要求资金支持一项研究计划，该计划旨在增进我们对一组称为“配体”的化学实体与金属相互作用的方式的理解。除了做出基础性发现并为科学进步做出贡献之外，我们还希望利用我们研究的金属-配体相互作用类型来发明使有用的化学转化成为可能的工艺。该计划属于有机金属化学的一般领域。顾名思义，该学术领域的中心主题围绕金属元素和有机分子的组合以及此类有机金属化合物的不同性质。有机金属化合物参与许多大规模商品生产的商业过程，例如乙酸（醋的主要成分）、工业醇和酸、聚酯、聚乙烯，甚至一些药物。在大多数情况下，这些工艺的商业可行性和竞争力归因于催化现象，即使用少量的关键化学转化器来生产大量的产品。加拿大在有机金属化学和催化领域在工业化国家中享有竞争地位。
