Chapter
Correlated and Non-Correlated Wave Functions for Organometallics
Electron correlation is the everlasting concern of people involved in ab initio Hartree-Fock calculations. If the investigation is restricted to the structure and properties of the ground state, the importance...

Chapter
Recent Advances in the Selective Oxidation of Alkyl C–H Bonds Catalyzed by Iron Coordination Complexes
Selective and stereoretentive oxidation of alkyl C–H bonds has been described over the last decade by employing biologically inspired iron coordination complexes as catalysts and hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. ...

Chapter
Asymmetric Epoxidation Catalyzed by Biologically Inspired Non-heme Iron Catalysts and Hydrogen Peroxide
Asymmetric epoxidation is a very interesting reaction in organic synthesis because it allows the transformation of highly abundant hydrocarbons in chiral oxygenated products that can be further used in the pre...
