Summary:

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 CO bond activations and functionalizations. A green aspect for selective formation of C-C, C-O and C-N bonds involves direct regioselective CH bond activations and functionalizations. These transformations can now be promoted under mild reaction conditions due to the use photoredox catalyts. CH bond oxidation using visible light leads mainly to the formation of CO and CN bonds, whereas cross-coupled CC bonds can be formed through the radical additions on (hetero) arenes using photoredox assisted mechanism.
