Die homogene Übergangsmetallkatalyse ist noch eine noch junge Wissenschaft, hat aber bereits zahlreiche großindustrielle Anwendungen gefunden. Langkettige Olefine, Essigsäure, Adipodinitril und Aldehyde werden heute überwiegend homogen-katalytisch hergestellt. Die Stärke der homogenen Katalyse liegt aber insbesondere bei der Synthese von Pharma- und Feinchemikalien, wo wenige Syntheseschritte eine lange Anfolge von Stufenreaktionen überflüssig machen. Dieses Buch gibt einen kompakten Überblick über die Prinzipien und Reaktionsmöglichkeiten der Homogenkatalyse, verdeutlicht an ausgesuchten Einzelbeispielen. Studierende, Chemiker und Ingenieure können dieses Buch zum ausführlichen Studium oder als Nachschlagewerk nutzen.
