Catalytic reactions-II Activation.
The activation of the homogeneous catalytic reactions used in analysis is discussed. The use of activators in catalytic methods permits increase in their sensitivity by 2-4 orders of magnitude and improvement in their selectivity as well. Many different mechanisms of activation are discussed and used as illustrations of the principles for choice of an appropriate activator.
