Showcases the important role of organometallic chemistry in industrial applications and
includes practical examples and case studies This comprehensive book takes a practical approach
to how organometallic chemistry is being used in industrial applications. It uniquely offers
numerous real-world examples and case studies that aid working R&D researchers as well as
Ph.D. and postdoc students preparing to ace interviews in order to enter the workforce. Edited
by two world-leading and established industrial chemists the book covers flow chemistry
(catalytic and non-catalytic organometallic chemistry) various cross-coupling reactions (C-C
C-N and C-B) in classical batch chemistry conjugate addition reactions metathesis and C-H
arylation and achiral hydrogenation reactions. Beginning with an overview of the many
industrial milestones within the field over the years Organometallic Chemistry in Industry: A
Practical Approach provides chapters covering: the design development and execution of a
continuous flow enabled API manufacturing route continuous manufacturing as an enabling
technology for low temperature organometallic chemistry the development of a nickel-catalyzed
enantioselective Mizoroki-Heck coupling and the development of iron-catalyzed Kumada
cross-coupling for the large scale production of Aliskiren intermediates. The book also
examines aspects of homogeneous hydrogenation from industrial research the latest industrial
uses of olefin metathesis and more. -Includes rare industrial case studies difficult to find
in current literature -Helps readers successfully carry out their own reactions -Covers topics
like flow chemistry cross-coupling reactions and dehydrative decarbonylation -Features a
foreword by Nobel Laureate R. H. Grubbs -A perfect resource for every R&D researcher in
industry -Useful for PhD students and postdocs: excellent preparation for a job interview
Organometallic Chemistry in Industry: A Practical Approach is an excellent resource for all
chemists including those working in the pharmaceutical industry and organometallics.
