Transition metal chemistry is a vast and dynamic field that centres on the distinctive properties of elements in groups 3–12. These metals, characterised by partially filled d orbitals, exhibit a ...

Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing these improvements requires that chemists design around documented reaction ...
