Organocatalysis and Bioinorganic Chemistry

The term "organocatalysis" in organic chemistry refers to a type of catalysis where a substance made of carbon, hydrogen, sulphur, and other nonmetal elements present in organic compounds acts as an organic catalyst to speed up chemical reactions.

In an effort to comprehend the biological functions of the chemicals that carry living processes, bio-organic chemistry investigates these compounds. A subfield of science called bioinorganic chemistry examines how metals function in living things. Both naturally occurring phenomena, including the activity of metalloproteins, and chemically added metals, including those that are non-essential, in medicine and toxicity are studied in bioinorganic chemistry.
