Transition metal catalysis

One of the most useful and powerful tool in organic chemistry.

Advantages:

- Chemoselectivity- Regioselectivity- Stereoselectivity- High yield- Reproducibility- Low catalyst loading

Examples of transition metal reactions:

- Cross-coupling - Hydroformylation - Alkene and alkyne metathesis- Hydrogenation- Cyclopropanation - Hydroamination- Hydroesterification- Hydrocarboxylation- Pauson-Khand reaction- Isomerisation of olefins- Hydrocyanation
