title: Development of palladium-carbene catalysts for telomerization and dimerization of 1,3-dienes: from basic research to industrial applications.
abstract: The following account summarises recent developments in the area of palladium-catalysed telomerisation and dimerisation reactions of 1,3-dienes. The most active types of catalyst, palladium-carbene complexes, were tested in pilot plant and proved to be industrially viable.
