Editorial Reviews

A description of catalytic systems commonly used as model systems in the laboratory and as industrial catalysts in large-scale operations, and a discussion of the mechanisms operating in these reactions. Attempts to describe the elementary steps by quantum chemical methods are also shown, as are recent efforts in studying the oxidation of methane. The last chapter discusses homogeneous catalytic oxidations. For researchers in the field of catalysis, or as a supplementary text for postgraduate students in physical chemistry, industrial chemistry, or chemical technology. Annotation c.
