Keynote Speakers
The keynote lectures of the GTL18 will be presented by:
University of Oxford
Development of Main Group compounds – particularly those of the group 2, 13 and 14 elements – to achieve unprecedented reactivity in the capture and activation of small molecules. Our aim is to alter the perception of the capabilities of Main Group compounds in stoichiometric and catalytic reactions.
Technical University of Munich
Molelcular intermetalloid clusters of the elements E = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb salt-like solids (Zintl phases) comprising alkali-metals and clusters En.
University of Bonn
Chemistry of Transition Metal-Tetrel Triple Bonds – Molecular Chemistry of Silicon and Germanium in Low Oxidation States.
Victoria University of Wellington
Synthesis and reactivity of Group 14 complexes; low valent heterobimetallic chemistry.
Indian Institute of Science Education and Research
Our ongoing research is directed towards the syntheses of heavier main-group compounds and their state-of-the-art applications. We majorly focus on innovative molecular catalyst designs and energy storage materials preparations in nano-dimensions.
University of Tsukuba
Creation of novel organic-inorganic compounds containing low-coordinated heavier main group elements from the viewpoint of fundamental chemistry.
