New Challenges in Metal Homogeneous Catalysis - HOMCAT

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2019-460

 
Description of research activity:

The aim of this research group is to develop catalysts for the transformation of low-functional substrates into products of industrial interest by means of homogeneous catalysis. The preferred substrates are hydrocarbons and other compounds with high chemical inertness such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide. For catalysts, metal complexes of elements of the first transition series will be used.
