Book Overview

Introduction (Advantages of homogeneous catalysis in derivatisation of renewables).- Oleochemicals.- Reactions of fatty acids and derivatives.- Reactions on the carboxyl group (Hydrogenations, aminations etc.).- Reactions on the alkyl (alkenyl) chain (Self- and cross metathesis, Diels-Alder-Reaction, selective hydrogenation, oxidation, epoxidation, bis-hydroxylation, (isomerising) hydroformylation, carbonylation, hydroaminomethylation, hydro-carboxylation, (isomerising) hydroesterification, oligomerisation and co-oligo-merisation, cyclisation, polymerisation, hydrosilylation, etc.).- Reactions of glycerol (Esterification, etherification, dimerisation, telomerisation, ketalisation, acetalization, reduction, oxidation, dehydration etc.).- Isoprenoids (Terpenes and steroids).- Reactions of low-molecular terpenes (Rearrangements, hydrohalogenation, esterification, alkoxylation, hydration, Diels-Al?der-reactions, oxidation, epoxidation, metathesis, hydroamination, hydroformyla?tion, hydrosilylation, dimerisation, co-oligomerisation, telomerisation, polymerisation etc.).- Reactions of polyprenes / rubbers (hydroformylation, metathesis, etc.).- Carbohydrates.- Functionalisation of mono- and disaccharides (e.g. telomerisations).- Functionalisation of polysaccharides (cellulose, starch, hemicelluloses, chitin).- Lignin and lignin model compounds e.g. functionalisations and oxidations.- Proteins and amino acids.- Carbon dioxide, e.g. hydrogenations, telomerisations etc.
