ChaudhuriCatalysis plays an important part in rendering chemical transformations very effective, highly selective and environmentally safer. catalysis is indeed not only one of the principal tenents of "" Green chemistry' but also is an integral part of it. the timely publication of a compendium on 'Green chemistry' and catalysis' by sheldon puts this point affirm beyond any scope of imagination. the invention of new, clean and appropriate catalysis for a chosen transformation is extremely important. and for this, a clear understanding of this chemistry of a prospective catalysis or a catalytic system and the transformation on which the catalysis is to be applied upon is an essential prerequisite....enCHEMISTRYThesis
