Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2006

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...
