Catalytic oxidation processes are bf central importance to a
substantial part of large-scale chemical industry. Indeed, this
area of industrial catalysis has an extremely long history which
stretches back well into the last century. The development and
growth of catalytic oxi dation processes for the manufacture of
commodities such as sulfuric acid and nitric acid can be viewed as
indicators for the growth of the early and middle years of the
entire inorganic chemical industry, and in an analogous fashion the
manufacture of products such as phthalic anhydride, maleic
anhydride and ethylene oxide has been central to the development of
an organic chemical industry. We should all be able" to learn from
history, and present-day scientists and technologists will find
considerable benefit in following the account of the historical
development of catalytic oxidation processes presented in Chapter I
by Drs. G. Chinchen, P. Davies and R. J. Sampson. Alkenes are
important intermediates in many processes in organic chemical
industry. Being mostly petroleum derived, the alkene availability
pattern does not necessar ily match consumption requirements and an
alkene inter conversion process such as metathesis is clearly of in
dustrial importance. In fact alkene metathesis, in addi tion to its
industrial significance, poses an interesting mechanistic problem.
upon which considerable effort has been expended in recent years
and which is now fairly well understood."
