Applied Organometallic Chemistry and Catalysis
This Primer has two main objectives: to provide an overview of the influence of organometallic chemistry on homogeneous and heterogenous catalysis and to provide an account of the principle commercial applications of homogeneous catalysis in industry. The book builds on the coverage of organometallic chemistry in two Primers by Bochmann, OCPs 12 and 13.

Building on the discussion of organometallics in two previous volumes, this brief primer provides an overview to organometallic chemistry on homogenous and heterogeneous catalysts. It describes the main industrial applications of homogenous catalysts. Particular attention is given to hydroformylation, acetic acid, nylon intermediates, olefin oligomerization, and polymerization.
