ast decade, boasting many new applications in the chemical, fine chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. This timely work offers a unified, easy-to-understand treatment of this challenging area of chemistry. With a practical emphasis and a thorough, selective survey of current literature, the authors present homogeneous catalytic reactions proven successful in industrial applications-illustrating both the mechanistic principles and illuminating new areas of academic and industrial research. An ideal self-study guide for inorganic chemists seeking to gain entry into the field as well as a much-needed reference for industry professionals, Homogeneous Catalysis: Mechanisms and Industrial Applications features:
* Clear discussions of the fundamental chemical and chemical engineering concepts relevant to homogeneous catalysis
* Important examples from selected industrial processes
* Extensive references to cutting-edge research with application potential (through March of 1999)
* Many tables and more than 100 illustrations to help explain difficult concepts
* Problems of variable complexities accompanying each chapter
