Heterogeneous catalysis in organic chemistry

Heterogeneous Catalysis in Organic Chemistry provides both the novice organic chemist with a concise introduction to the state of the art and the experienced organic chemist with descriptions of recent surface science and materials science discoveries that can stimulate innovative, nontraditional thinking about organic reactions on surfaces.

Written for organic chemists in academia and in the fine and specialty chemicals industries, this book addresses the questions organic chemists ask about heterogeneous catalysis by first introducing and explaining the concepts and language of catalysis.
