Serving as a user’s manual for synthetic organic and catalytic
chemists, this book guides chemists in the design and choice of
ligands to catalyze organic reactions and apply the results for
more efficient, green, and practical synthesis.
* Focuses on the role of ligands in metal complexes that
catalyze green organic transformations: a hot topic in the area of
organic synthesis and green chemistry
* Offers a comprehensive resource to help readers design
and choose ligands and understand selectivity/reactivity
characteristics
* Addresses a gap by taking novel ligand approaches and
including up-to-date discussion on hydrogen transfers and
reactions
* Presents important industrial perspective and provides
rational explanations of ligand effects, impacts, and novelty
