The demand for selective organic reactions is growing more acute
everyday. Indeed, greater product selectivity has an important
impact on energy and resource utilization, in terms of reduced
process energy requirements for product separation and
purification, in terms of low-value by-products, and in terms of
environmental acceptance and compatibility. Moreover, more and more
chemicals, especially pharmaceuticals, have to be sold in an
optically active form. The search for selectivity constitutes a
tremendous challenge for the chemists. In the last two decades,
homogeneous transition metal based catalysis has emerged as one of
the most promising tools for obtaining selectivity. In connection
with developments in this area, this book contains updated and
expanded versions of most of the lectures presented at a Cornett
course held in Trieste (Italy) in 1989 and sponsored by the
European Community. A primary aim is to cultivate a deeper
understanding of the parameters that govern the selectivities and
stimulate a wider utilization of transition metal based catalysis
in organic synthesis. All aspects of selectivity, chemo-, regio-,
stereo- and enantioselectivity are considered and illustrated by
applications in various fields or organic synthesis. The impact of
catalysis in oxydation, reduction, carbonylation reactions, carbene
chemistry, in Ni and Pd promoted dimerizations, oligomerizations as
well as fonctionalisations is stressed, quite often with special
emphasis laid on reaction mechanisms. In this aspect, the last
chapter examplifies the interest of high pressure NMR and IR when
investigating the nature of reaction intermediates in homogeneous
reactions.
