    Synthesis of Other Non-Cyclic Compounds

    Nitroalkanes have been rarely used as substrates for catalytic reactions with carbon monoxide. This is mainly due to the fact that they usually react with transition metal complexes in their aci form [1]. Thus...

    Mechanistic Studies

    Despite some effort, the detailed mechanism of most of the reactions described in this book is still poorly understood. The main reason for this lack of knowledge is the fact that almost all of the catalytic p...

    Introduction

    A number of modern industrial processes are based on the catalytic carbonylation of organic substrates by carbon monoxide [1–4]. Important chemicals incorporating carbon monoxide, such as oxo alcohols, acetic ...

    Synthesis of Carbamates and Ureas

    In the previous chapter, we have discussed the catalytic systems leading to the direct synthesis of isocyanates. However, these processes are all plagued by insufficient selectivities, mainly due to self-conde...

    Synthesis of Heterocycles

    The synthesis of carbamates and isocyanates via the catalytic carbonylation of organic nitro compounds (Chapters 2 and 3) is still not competitive with respect to the classical phosgene route. However, this is tr...
