Book Description

ISBN-10: 0849349532 | ISBN-13: 978-0849349539 | Publication Date: July 19, 1997 | Edition: 1

How does nature manage to produce reactions from difficult substrates? How are stable molecules involved in low-temperature, low-pressure chemical reactions? How can a chemist stop a chemical reaction short of oxidation? Adopting the premise that there is a chemical analog for any naturally occurring enzymatic process, a renowned chemist answers these and other challenging questions in Metal Complexes in Biomimetic Chemical Reactions. This book explains chemical analogs as they apply to their biological counterparts. This volume covers basic chemical reactions found in nature, including: molecular nitrogen reduction in solution; selective hydrocarbon oxidation (including methane); and photodecomposition of water. Numerous drawings, equations, and structures enhance the text.
