A new class of ruthenium catalysts
04-12-2023…called a catalyst. Catalytic reactions are preferable in environmentally friendly green chemistry because of the reduced waste generated and power as well as time consumed. Nowadays, the production of the most industrially important chemicals involves catalysis and similarly most biochemically significant processes are also catalysed. “From a chemical point of view, a catalyst lowers a free energy barrier of a reaction, meaning that less free…
