The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Homogeneous catalysis, Ruthenium and Carbon dioxide. His Catalysis research includes themes of Inorganic chemistry, Photochemistry and Formic acid. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide and Solvent.

Walter Leitner works mostly in the field of Organic chemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Medicinal chemistry and, in certain cases, Methanesulfonic acid and Catalytic hydrogenation, as a part of the same area of interest. Walter Leitner has included themes like Raw material and Furfural in his Homogeneous catalysis study. The concepts of his Ruthenium study are interwoven with issues in Hydride, Methylation, Methanol and Amine gas treating.

His most cited work include:

  • Worldwide innovations in the development of carbon capture technologies and the utilization of CO2 (631 citations)
  • Worldwide innovations in the development of carbon capture technologies and the utilization of CO2 (631 citations)
  • Chemical synthesis using supercritical fluids (617 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Ruthenium, Ionic liquid and Homogeneous catalysis. His Catalysis research incorporates themes from Combinatorial chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Carbon dioxide and Supercritical fluid. In most of his Organic chemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Polymer chemistry.

The Ruthenium study combines topics in areas such as Photochemistry, Hydride, Triphos and Medicinal chemistry. His study in Ionic liquid is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nanoparticle and Phase. His research in Enantioselective synthesis intersects with topics in Ligand and Stereochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Catalysis (79.74%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Walter Leitner mostly deals with Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Combinatorial chemistry, Manganese and Ruthenium. His research integrates issues of Nanoparticle, Methanol and Polymer chemistry in his study of Catalysis. As part of the same scientific family, Walter Leitner usually focuses on Methanol, concentrating on Homogeneous catalysis and intersecting with Methylation.

His study brings together the fields of Leaching and Organic chemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Reagent, Carbon monoxide, Hydride and Reducing agent as well as Combinatorial chemistry. In his research, Carbon dioxide is intimately related to Medicinal chemistry, which falls under the overarching field of Manganese.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Designing for a green chemistry future. (116 citations)
  • Designing for a green chemistry future. (116 citations)
  • Cleaner production of cleaner fuels: wind-to-wheel – environmental assessment of CO2-based oxymethylene ether as a drop-in fuel (86 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Catalysis
  • Organic chemistry
  • Hydrogen

His primary areas of study are Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Combinatorial chemistry, Manganese and Ionic liquid. His work carried out in the field of Catalysis brings together such families of science as Methanol, Phase, Formic acid, Chemical engineering and Process engineering. Walter Leitner has researched Phase in several fields, including Homogeneous catalysis and Supercritical fluid.

In his work, Hydrogenolysis is strongly intertwined with Reagent, which is a subfield of Combinatorial chemistry.
