There are several types of molecular catalysts, including:
Homogeneous Catalysts: These catalysts are in the same phase as the reactants, usually in solution. Examples include metal complexes and organic molecules. Heterogeneous Catalysts: These catalysts are in a different phase than the reactants, often solid catalysts in a liquid or gas reaction mixture. Examples include supported metal catalysts. Biocatalysts: Enzymes are natural molecular catalysts that are highly specific and efficient.
