| Periodizität | jährlich wiederkehrende Veranstaltung |
| Lehrsprache | Englisch |
| Kommentar | Voraussetzung: Besuch der Lehrveranstaltung 529-0132-00L "Anorganische Chemie III: Metallorganische Chemie und Homogenkatalyse" |
| Kurzbeschreibung | This class will discuss advanced concepts in organometallic, bio-inorganic and coordination chemistry, in the context of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis as well as enzymatic processes. The class will thus cover a broad range of catalytic transformations focusing on the sustainable and efficient use of feedstock molecules, exploring the parallel between industrial and biological systems. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | Gain knowledge of catalytic transformations, relevant to processes found in industry and in Nature. Development of an extended molecular understanding of organometallic, bio-inorganic and coordination chemistry in relation to catalytic transformations. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | Specific focus will be given to key reactions such as alkane functionalization and homologation, olefin metathesis and polymerization, oxidation, processes related to conversion of C1 molecules (CH4 and CO2), CO/H2 to hydrocarbons (Fischer-Tropsch) and N2/H2 to ammonia (Haber-Bosch) as well as the corresponding enzymatic counterparts. The fundamental underlying principle of the associated elementary steps and reaction mechanisms involved in these processes, that include C-H activation, O/N-atom transfer reactions, N-N, C-O and C-C bond cleavage and formation will be discussed in details exploiting Molecular Orbital theory and spectroscopy. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
