The importance of homogeneous distribution in catalysis cannot be overstated. A uniform distribution allows for:
Enhanced Reaction Rates: Reactants have consistent access to catalytic sites, leading to faster reactions. Improved Selectivity: Homogeneous catalysts can be fine-tuned to favor specific reaction pathways, reducing by-products. Better Temperature Control: Uniform distribution facilitates consistent heat transfer, minimizing hot spots that could degrade reactants or catalysts.
