Abstract

Finding molecules which are able to catalyze the reaction between others is an important contribution of molecular chemists to increase the efficiency of chemical reactions whereby our daily life based on consumption of chemicals is shifted closer to an ecologically and economically tolerable equilibrium with our environment [1]. The development of heterogeneous catalysts for fine chemicals synthesis has become a major area of research mainly because the reactions are carried out under ...
