Gas chromatographic high-throughput screening techniques in catalysis
2008
Trapp, Oliver
Discovering highly efficient catalysts is of great scientific and economical interest. Advances in high-throughput assays in combination with sophisticated analytical techniques have increased the rapidity with which catalysts can be identified and optimized. Understanding how kinetics in the mechanism of catalysis is controlled by structural parameters is essential for a directed design of catalysts. To identify such rate-controlling elementary steps and to develop and refine models, comprehensive experimental kinetic data of a broad variety of substrates are necessary. In the present article concepts of high-throughput screening techniques in catalysis using gas chromatography are reviewed in a survey covering the period from 1998 to 2007. To cover also the origins of concepts and groundbreaking experiments in this research area milestones going back to 1950 are also reviewed. The first part of the review will focus on off-line gas chromatographic analysis, the second part on on-line gas chromatographic analysis covering sequential, parallelized and high-throughput multiplexing gas chromatography. The third part presents recent advances in the integration of chemical transformation and analysis in gas chromatography. The present review article describes the state-of-the-art, scope and limitations, and applications of these different high-throughput screening approaches.
