DEFINITION

Classification: 585/405

Using transition metal-containing catalyst:

(under subclass 404) Subject matter wherein the reaction takes place in the presence of a catalyst containing a transition metal in free or combined form.

(1) Note. The transition metals are elements in which an inner electron shell, rather than an outer shell, is partially filled. In the periodic table they include elements 21 through 30 (scandium through zinc), 39 through 48 (yttrium through cadmium), 57 through 80 (lanthanum through mercury), and 89 through 103 (actinium through lawrencium).
