Catalysis underpins most modern industrial organic processes. It has become an essential tool in creating a 'greener' chemical industry by replacing more traditional stoichiometric reactions, which have high energy consumption and high waste production, with mild processes which increasingly resemble Nature's enzymes. Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes is a definitive reference source, written by practising experts in the field, that provides detailed and up-to-date information on key aspects of metal catalysis.

Produktbeschreibung
Catalysis underpins most modern industrial organic processes. It has become an essential tool in creating a 'greener' chemical industry by replacing more traditional stoichiometric reactions, which have high energy consumption and high waste production, with mild processes which increasingly resemble Nature's enzymes. Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes is a definitive reference source, written by practising experts in the field, that provides detailed and up-to-date information on key aspects of metal catalysis. The major industrial processes, involving oxidation, hydrogenation, carbonylation, C-C bond formation, metathesis and polymerization, and their mechanisms, are concisely discussed. In addition two appendices describe the basics of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Numerous exercises referring to problems of the catalytic processes, and research perspectives complete the book. "There is hardly any other field of chemistry that is so clearly connected to industrial application as organometallic chemistry and catalysis.....An interestingly written textbook that explains the most important metal-catalyzed industrial processes at a suitably thorough level, but is nevertheless compact enough to be read as a whole, promises to be a very useful resource." Angewandte Chemie International Ed., 2007, 46, 3791-3792 (Lukas J. GooBen) "The field of industrial catalysis is obviously enormous and yet has been well covered here in fewer than 300 pages. This makes the book an accessible work that describes many of the more important processes in sufficient depth, rather than an unwieldy tome. "A particularly appealing aspect of the book is the inclusion of 'discussion points' throughout the book. These would be useful, for instance, as themes for round-table discussions with advanced level undergraduate and postgraduate students, indeed I have used some of them for precisely this purpose. In some of the chapters these are supplemented with invaluable extra 'hints' to help get the ball rolling. In summary I wholeheartedly recommend this excellent textbook to anybody with an interest in catalysis, either from an industrial or academic perspective." Platinum Metals Review, 2007, 51 (4), 187-188 (Robin B Bedford)
