Description for Theoretical Aspects of Homogeneous Catalysis
Hardback. Presents the quantitative application of quantum chemistry to organometallic reactions. This title deals with key reactions of homogeneous catalysis including oxidative addition, migratory insertions, 2+2 additions, the Wacker reaction, and epoxidation. It provides experimental chemists with an overview of the state of the art in this field. Editor(s): Leeuwen, P. W. N. M. van; Morokuma, Keiji C.L. (Emerson Center, Emory University, Atlanta, USA); Lenthe, Joop H. Van (Theoretical Chemistry Group, University of Utrecht, Netherlands). Series: Catalysis by Metal Complexes. Num Pages: 220 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PNND; PNRD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 14. Weight in Grams: 504.
Homogeneous catalysis plays an important role both in the laboratory and in the industry. Successful applications in industry involve new polymerisation processes with complexes of zirconium and related metals, new carbonylation processes employing palladium and rhodium, ring opening polymerisations, and new enantioselective isomerisation catalysts as in the preparation of menthol. Also in the synthesis of organic compounds in the laboratory highly selective homogeneous catalysts represent an irreplaceable part of the toolbox of the synthetic chemist. Examples of such reactions are cross-coupling (Ni, Pd), nucleophilic substitution of allylpalladium complexes, Heck reactions (Pd), asymmetric epoxidation, Wacker type reactions (Pd), asymmetric hydrogenations (Rh, ...
