Homogeneous and enzyme Catalysis
The first molecularly defined catalyst was the Co carbonyl hydroformylation catalyst discovered by Roelen in 1938.Its mechanism. defined in physical organic terms, was unraveled in the 1960 s by Heck and Breslow, and it was later developed commercially by Shell.
Earlier, mercury sulfate had been industrially applied for the conversion of acetylene to acetaldehyde. Later , in the 1950s, the Wacker process of selective oxidation of ethylene catalyzed by the Pd/Cu system was introduced.
The Ziegler-Natta invention of an ethylene and propylene polymerization catalyst in the 1950s, based on TiCl_3, signaled the beginning of well-defined (immobilized) coordination complexes serving as catalytically active species, in parallel with the development of metal-organic chemistry.
This development was crowned by Wilkinson's discovery of homogeneous hydrogenation in 1965. The catalyst ,RhCl, consists of a single metallic center stabilized by triarylphosphines. The unique feature of such organometallic complexes is that can manipulated molecularly by variation of the ligands. with their invention the field of molecular catalysis has been expended from the organic chemist is realm into metal-based catalysis. Catalyst design through development of physical approaches, ligand synthesis, and computational modeling techniques has become one of the outstanding features of this branch of catalysis.
These developments have provided the basis of several large-scale homogeneous bulk industrial processes. Examples are the Rh-based carbonylation of methanol and hydroformylation processes. More recently we see the development of metathesis applied, for instance, in the ring-opening polymerization process of Huels, and enantiomeric catalysis due to invention of highly enantiomeric ligand systems, as for the production L-Dopa by Monsanto.
A special issue in homogeneous is catalysis is separation of catalyst from product after reaction, and for this there are unique development and application of biphasic system and membrane reaction.
Whereas biocatalysis has been used widely in fermentation processes from the early beginning of mankind, the science of biocatalysis only started when Sumner and Northrop were able to crystallize an enzyme, the molecule active as a biocatalyst in the living system, and identified it as a protein. The protein acts as the complex ligand of the catalytically active center, that can be an organic acid or base , a metal , or an inorganic metallic complex. Variation of the protein composition far from the actual catalytic site can have a major effect on catalyst performance. Unique to enzyme catalysis is multipoint contact and activation of a substrate molecule when this is adsorbed into the interior of the enzyme.
Very early in the nineteenth century, Willstatter discovered catalases and peroxidases that activate hydrogen peroxide, and Summer concentrated on urease that decomposes urea.
One of the early bulk processer that employ a hydrolase enzyme is the Mitsui Toatsu process that converts acetonitrile into the corresponding amide.
Modern biomolecular chemistry has a major impact on the design and improvement of biocatalytic system through the use of combinatorial and recombinative techniques that allow for DNA reshuffling. Such evolutionary molecular biological techniques have been developed especially for application to fine chemical synthesis. Mutations are introduced through the biochemical polymer chain reaction or other random chain reactions. This approach has led to the development of bacterial lipases with significantly enhanced enantioselectivity.
Differently from the design approaches in homo-and heterogeneous catalysis, in this approach to catalysis no mechanistic information on the catalytic reaction is used to optimize the system. The desired catalyst is found by feedback of the informayionobthained by screening into the selection of the bacteria possessing the desired gene sequences.
