Synthesis and modelling of Tungsten catalysts for alkene metathesis / Morena Samuel Xaba

The aim of this study was to investigate, theoretically and experimentally, the W(O–2,6–C6H3Cl2)2Cl4 catalyst and to synthesise ‘cage’ alicyclic ligands that will help retain the catalyst during the membrane separation process. Furthermore, molecular modelling was used in order to explain the metal–...
