Beskrivning

Catalysis with Sub-Nanometer Metal Clusters: A new tool for Synthetic Chemistry provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in sub-nanometer metal clusters as catalysts, targeting researchers and professionals involved in sustainable chemistry, catalysis, and industrial process optimization. It is designed for chemists, materials scientists, chemical engineers, and industrial practitioners seeking to understand the unique size-dependent properties of metal clusters and their applications in key chemical transformations such as hydrogen production, oxidation, and C-C coupling reactions. The book bridges fundamental science with practical applications by offering detailed reaction mechanisms, structure-activity relationships, and innovative synthetic strategies for catalyst preparation. Its visual content-including diagrams, flow charts, and high-quality color figures-enhances clarity, making complex concepts accessible for quick reference and effective learning.

Covers the growing importance of size-controlled catalysts and confinement effects, which are critical for developing next-generation catalytic materials
Offers a comprehensive resource for both academic researchers and industry professionals aiming to innovate and optimize catalytic processes for sustainable development
Includes practical synthetic routes, structural diagrams, and mechanistic insights to support research and industrial development
Incorporates visual aids such as flow charts, tables, and color figures to facilitate understanding of complex concepts and structures

Mer om författaren

Dr. Antonio Pérez-Gálvez is a researcher and head of the Department of Food Phytochemistry Department, Instituto de la Grasa, Spain. He specializes in pigment chemistry and biochemistry. His research is focused on food, functional ingredients, and health with special emphasis on carotenoids. Belén Lerma-Berlanga graduated in Chemistry in 2016 at the University of Valencia (UV), obtaining the Extraordinary Degree Award. In 2017, she started her Ph.D. studies at Instituto de Ciencia Molecular (ICMol) under the supervision of Dr. Carlos Martí Gastaldo and Dr. Natalia Muñoz Padial with a FPU grant from the Spanish government. During this period her work was focused on the design and synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on group IV metals, and the study of their applications in photocatalysis and gas separation. In 2022, Belén completed her Ph.D. with CUM LAUDE qualification and international mention, along with the Best Thesis in Chemistry award from the UV. Later, she joined the Antonio Leyva Pérez´s group at the Institute of Chemical Technology (ITQ-CSIC) as a postdoctoral researcher with a Juan de la Cierva grant from Spanish government. Her role is to study catalytic processes in industrial valued reactions.
