High activities for a variety of catalytic reactions are illustrative consequences of this altered reactivity. This lecture focuses on the intricate non-covalent and covalent multi-center interactions that modulate these catalytic processes, focusing primarily on polymerization and hydrogenation/dehydrogenation processes.
