The aim of the course:
The aim of lesson; To define the catalyst in general terms, to examine the metal effect for the targeted catalyst design, to determine the activity of the catalyst according to the properties of the central metal atom, to define the catalysis systems, to determine the advantages and disadvantages, to determine the catalytic reaction mechanisms, ligand coordination and separation, intercalation and elimination, coordinate Nucleophilic attack on ligands, oxidation and reduction, oxidant addition and reductive elimination, some organometallic and coordination compounds to examine their use in homogeneous catalysis systems, hydrogenation of alkenes, hydroformylation, Monsanto acetic acid synthesis, Wacker oxidation of alkenes, polymerization of alkenes reactions in the presence of catalysts and evaluation the results in the presence of studies in the literature.
