Evaluating catalytic performance involves several parameters:
Activity: The rate at which a catalyst accelerates a reaction. Higher activity means a faster reaction. Stability: The ability of a catalyst to maintain its performance over time and under various conditions. Selectivity: The ability of a catalyst to direct a reaction towards a specific product, minimizing byproducts. Turnover Number (TON): The number of moles of product formed per mole of catalyst. Turnover Frequency (TOF): The number of catalytic cycles per unit time.
