Definition of catalysis; catalyst action; homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis; application of the principles of green chemistry in catalytic processes, metal complexes as molecular catalysts; catalytic cycles; important reactions catalyzed by molecular catalysts (hydrogenation, hydroformylation, synthesis of acetic acid from methanol and carbon monoxide, polymerization of alkenes, etc.); commercial advantages of heterogeneous catalysis; single-phase and multi-phase heterogeneous catalysts; mechanisms of heterogeneous catalysis; important heterogeneous catalysis (oxidation of sulfur(IV) oxide to sulfur(VI) oxide, alkene hydrogenation, ammonia synthesis, alkene polymerization, catalytic total oxidation of pollutants; hydrocarbon isomerization, electrochemical catalysis).
Within the seminar, current topics in the field are discussed on the basis of original scientific papers or review papers reported by the students themselves.
