Experimental, DFT and kinetic study of 1-octene metathesis with Hoveyda-Grubbs second generation precatalyst
(Elsevier, 2012)In this study we report the catalytic performance, reaction engineering kinetics and elucidation of the reaction mechanism using density functional theory (DFT) for the metathesis reaction of 1-octene in the presence of ... -
Investigation of indenylidene-derivatives of Grubbs type precatalyst for 1-octene metathesis
(North-West University, 2018)The ideal metathesis precatalyst is a catalyst with high metathesis activity, high selectivity, enhanced thermal stability, great handling characteristics (high tolerance towards moisture and air) and tolerance to a wide ... -
Metal carbenes in homogeneous alkene metathesis: computational investigations
(Elsevier, 2013)This paper demonstrates the contribution of molecular modeling as a tool to understanding alkene metathesis e by giving an overview of computational studies done of the four main types of metal carbenes tested in homogeneous ... -
Separation of different metathesis grubbs-type catalysts using organic solvent nanofiltration
(Elsevier, 2010)In this paper, the challenge of separating and re-using homogeneous catalysts from their post-reaction mixture in the field of metathesis is addressed using organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN). A coupled reaction–separation ... -
Towards a better understanding of alkene metathesis: elucidating the properties of the major metal carbene catalyst types
(Springer, 2015)The difference in activity of metal carbene catalysts has a major influence on the efficiency and application of these metal carbenes as metathesis catalysts. The focus of this research is to examine the properties ...
