Early Industrial Applications of Olefin Metathesis

by Andy Nickel on October 1, 2009

Mol, J. C. Industrial Applications of Olefin Metathesis. J. Mol. Catal. A: Chem. 2004, 213, 39-45.

Johannes Mol wrote a summary on the state of olefin metathesis in industrial processes in 2004.  It’s got detailed descriptions of the early industrial metathesis processes (Phillips triolefin process and the Shell Higher Olefins Process (SHOP)), along with ROMP polymers on the market and some early homogeneous fine chemical applications.
