This book introduces readers to the fundamentals and applications of contemporary catalysts derived from transition metals. Case studies on the selected catalysts demonstrate the unique challenges and solutions in catalyst design and niche applications. Two sections on metal complexes and nanomaterials provide contemporary examples to illustrate the principles and mechanisms of catalysis. Active researchers in chemistry, chemical engineering, or nanomaterials will
find this book useful.

Über Autor(innen)

Meng Zhou was born in Chengdu, China, and received his Bachelor of Science from Purdue University in 2008. Meng studied the C-H functionalization reactions catalyzed by organometallic iridium complexes with Robert Crabtree at Yale University (Ph.D.) and later with Alan Goldman
at Rutgers University (Postdoc). He then investigated the acetate-stabilized cobalt (II,III) oxide nanoparticles with Richard Finke at Colorado State University. Since 2016, he has been an assistant professor of inorganic chemistry at Lawrence Technological University in Michigan, where his
research focuses on nanomaterials and catalysis. He supervises undergraduate students conducting research in a regular, collegewide curriculum supported by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Inclusive Excellence initiative.
