Homogeneous Catalysis

The course describes the main industrial processes involving organometallic homogeneous catalysis. The processes are described in a way that the students can become acquainted with the problems encountered when passing from a laboratory to an industrial scale, but without dealing with engineering aspects.

Students will acquire the knowledge to be able to examine a homogeneous catalytic process not only for the reactivity/selectivity aspects, but also from the point of view of the stability, activity and reciclability of the catalyst on a large scale.
