Understanding the promotion of aerobic oxidation of benzyl alcohol over Pt-based catalysts
… bismuth is thought to induce electron backdonation in benzyl alcohol substrate, thus weakening the O-H bond of the alcohol; electron backdonation induced by Bi is improbable with cyclohexyl methanol as the substrate. Typically, the active metal, in heterogeneous catalysis immobilized on …

Quantum mechanical analysis of donor-acceptor interactions in organometallic complexes and comparative analysis of class size and teacher experience on student satisfaction and learning
… of the [M]←(H2) σ donation and [M]→(H2) π backdonation which clearly shows that the π backdonation has a much stronger effect on stretching the H-H distance than the σ donation. In Chapter 3, density functional theory and ab initio methods have been used to calculate the structures and …

ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY FROM THE INTERACTING QUANTUM ATOM APPROACH
The Interacting Quantum Atoms approach(IQA) is a recent development of Bader’s QTAM(Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules). During the PhD studies the use of pseudopotential inside IQA was implemented allowing the study of transition metal compounds with this techniques. Furthermore IQA concepts …
