The chemistry of vanadium has seen remarkable activity in the past 50 years. In the present review, reactions catalyzed by homogeneous and supported vanadium complexes from 2008 to 2018 are summarized and discussed. Particular attention is given to mechanistic and kinetics studies of vanadium-catalyzed reactions including oxidations of alkanes, alkenes, arenes, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and sulfur species, as well as oxidative C–C and C–O bond cleavage, carbon–carbon bond formation, deoxydehydration, haloperoxidase, cyanation, hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, ring-opening metathesis polymerization, and oxo/imido heterometathesis. Additionally, insights into heterogeneous vanadium catalysis are provided when parallels can be drawn from the homogeneous literature.

钒的催化应用：机械学的观点

在过去的50年中，钒的化学活性非常出色。在本综述中，总结并讨论了2008年至2018年由均相和负载型钒配合物催化的反应。特别注意钒催化反应的机理和动力学研究，包括烷烃，烯烃，芳烃，醇，醛，酮和硫物种的氧化，以及氧化的C–C和C–O键断裂，碳-碳键形成，脱氧脱水，卤代过氧化物酶，氰化，氢化，脱氢，开环易位聚合和氧代/亚胺基异复分解。此外，当可以从均相文献中得出相似之处时，将提供对多相钒催化作用的见解。
