Note publique d'information : This volume presents the latest developments in the use of organometallic catalysis
for the formation of bulk chemicals and the production of energy, via green processes
including efficient utilization of waste feedstocks from industry. The chemistry of
carbon dioxide relating to its hydrogenation into methanol –an eco-friendly energy
storage strategy– and its uses as C1 synthon for the formation of important building-blocks
for fine chemicals industry are covered. Catalytic hydrogenations of various functional
groups and hydrogen transfer reactions including the use of first row metal catalysts
are presented as well as the conversion of alcohols to carboxylates via hydrogen transfer
with a zero-waste strategy using water. Transformation of renewable or bio-based raw
materials is surveyed through alkene metathesis and C–O bond activations and functionalizations.
A green aspect for selective formation of C-C, C-O and C-N bonds involves direct regioselective
C–H bond activations and functionalizations. These transformations can now be promoted
under mild reaction conditions due to the use photoredox catalyts. C–H bond oxidation
using visible light leads mainly to the formation of C–O and C–N bonds, whereas cross-coupled
C–C bonds can be formed through the radical additions on (hetero) arenes using photoredox
assisted mechanism.
