A Concise Encyclopedia

Catalysis from A to Z

Homogeneous catalysis is the success story of organometallic chemistry. Since the discovery of hydroformylation by O. Roelen in 1938, catalytic applications have paved the way of organometallic compounds in industry. Bulk and fine chemicals, and even natural products are being produced via homogeneous organometallic catalysis. The enormous breadth of this topic in view of both basic research and industrial application is met in this three volume handbook edited jointly by W. A. Herrmann and B. Cornils. The list of contributors reads like a who-is-who in organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis. In this handbook, experts will find the current state-of-the-art in their field and advanced students will benefit from the concise treatment of important catalytic reactions and processes. With its balanced presentation of the truly interdisciplinary topic and its outstanding editor- and authorship, the 'Cornils/Herrmann' is beyond common standards. Now in its second, completely revised and enlarged edition!

This long-awaited two-volume handbook is the one-stop reference for everybody working in the field of multiphase catalysis. Covering academic and industrial applications, it will set the standard for future developments. All editors are top scientists with an industrial or academic background and have put together an international team to present every facet of this fascinating methodology -- including aqueous-phase catalysis, ionic liquids, fluorous-phase chemistry, supercritical solvents, and catalysis with polymer-bound ligands -- in a compact and competent manner. From the Contents: Organic Chemistry in Water Homogeneous Catalysis in the Aqueous Phase Technical Solutions Technical Applications of Supercritical Fluids Organic-Organic Biphasic Catalysis on a Laboratory Scale Enantioselective Catalysis in the Fluorous Phase Catalysis in Nonaqueous Ionic Liquids Commercial Applications and Aspects of Ionic Liquids Catalysis using Supercritical Solvents Soluble Polymer-Bound Catalysts Polymer-Bound Metal Complexes as Catalysts for C-C and C-N Coupling

Multiphase Homogeneous Catalysis, 2 Volume Set

Now in its second completely revised and expanded edition. Written by the renowned editors B. Cornils and W. A. Herrmann, this book presents every important aspect of aqueous-phase organometallic catalysis, a method which saves time, waste and money. The large-scale application of this "green" technology in chemical industry clearly underlines its practical use outside of academia. New chapters (for example "Organic Chemistry in Water"), 20% more content and fully updated contributions from a plethora of international authors make this book a "must-have" for everyone working in this field. From the reviews of the first edition: "This overview will be extremely useful for everyone active in this field [...]" Angewandte Chemie "This book is an essential in any chemical research library and I strongly recommend it to all synthetic research and teaching chemists. [...]" The Alchemist "The editors are to be congratulated on assembling such a wide range of contributors who have described the industrial as well as the academic aspects of the subject." [...] Journal of Organometallic Chemistry
