Download or read book Catalysis by Di- and Polynuclear Metal Cluster Complexes written by Richard D. Adams and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1998-03-16 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneer work on catalysis of organic chemical reactions involving multinuclear metal complexes. Catalysis by Di- and Polynuclear Metal Cluster Complexes surveys the latest developments at the frontier of this exciting field, combining theory with new and original examples of catalytic processes produced by polynuclear metal complexes. An invaluable resource for inorganic and organometallic chemists in industry and R&D, it contains chapters from world experts and scholars on: Concepts and models for characterizing homogeneous reactions catalyzed by transition metal cluster complexes Activation of ruthenium clusters for use in catalysis Catalysis by mixed metal clusters containing gold phosphine groupings Catalysis by sulfido bridged dimolybdenum complexes Dimolybdenum and ditungsten complexes Synthesis of organic compounds catalyzed by transition metal clusters Catalysis with dirhodium (II) complexes Catalytic synthesis of polythioether macrocycles Catalysis of Rh, Rh-Co, and Ir-Co multinuclear complexes and its applications to organic syntheses Bimetallic hydroformylation catalysis Catalysis by colloids Catalysis with palladium clusters Heterometallic clusters for heterogeneous catalysis Supported clusters in catalysis.
