Catalysis: An Integrated Approach To Homogeneou... May 2026

Reducing waste by ensuring every atom in the reactant ends up in the product, often by using "tethered" catalysts that are easy to recover and reuse without losing their activity.

Rather than treating (liquid phase), Heterogeneous (solid surface), and Enzymatic (biocatalysis) systems as separate silos, this approach looks for common ground in reaction mechanisms and molecular design. Catalysis: An Integrated Approach to Homogeneou...

Designing systems where two different types of catalytic sites work in tandem—for example, a metal site for hydrogenation and an acid site for dehydration—to complete complex multi-step reactions in a single "one-pot" process. Reducing waste by ensuring every atom in the

Bringing the high selectivity of homogeneous catalysts (like organometallic complexes) to the durability and recyclability of heterogeneous supports (like zeolites or silica). Bringing the high selectivity of homogeneous catalysts (like

Learning from the high efficiency of enzymes to create synthetic catalysts that operate under mild conditions (low temperature/pressure) while maintaining extreme specificity.

Using AI and quantum chemistry to predict how a catalyst will behave across different phases, allowing researchers to "digitally twin" a reaction before ever hitting the lab.
