The results of these studies have  proved to be most important for an understanding of the underlying  principles of the activation of small molecules by transition metal  complexes. During the past three decades homogeneous hydrogenation has  found widespread application in organic chemistry, including the  production of important pharmaceuticals, especially where a  sophisticated degree of selectivity is required.\u003cbr\u003e  This volume presents a general account of the main principles and  applications of homogeneous hydrogenation by transition metal  complexes. Special attention is devoted to the mechanisms by which  these processes occur, and the role of the recently discovered  complexes of molecular hydrogen is described. Sources of hydrogen,  other than H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e, are also considered (transfer hydrogenation).  The latest achievements in highly stereoselective hydrogenations have  made possible many new applications in organic synthesis. These  applications are documented by giving details of the reduction of  important unsaturated substrates (alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes and  ketones, nitrocompounds, etc.). Hydrogenation in biphasic and phase  transfer catalyzed systems is also described. Finally, a discussion of  the biochemical routes of H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e activation highlights the  similarities and differences in performing hydrogenation in both  natural and synthetic systems.\u003cbr\u003e  For researchers working in the fields of homogeneous catalysis,  especially in areas such as pharmaceuticals, plastics and fine  chemicals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1994-04-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792324744\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-1791-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 290.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45379303211148,"sku":"9780792324744","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792324744_2e221f41-5791-4486-904e-6ba9f0faeba7.jpg?v=1765474649","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792324744","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
