Catalyst Turnover Number (TON) & Turnover Frequency (TOF) Calculator
Calculate catalyst productivity (Turnover Number - TON) and instantaneous catalytic speed (Turnover Frequency - TOF in h^-1 and s^-1) for homogeneous and heterogeneous systems.
Turnover Number (TON)
Calculator Inputs
Turnover Number (TON)
Turnover Frequency (TOF per hour)
Turnover Frequency (TOF per second)
Excellent Industrial Catalytic Efficiency (TON >= 1,000): The catalyst exhibits high durability and productivity suitable for green synthesis.
Catalytic Turnover Metrics Profile
Standard industrial and synthetic chemistry tool for quantifying catalytic activity and catalyst lifetime.
Calculation Methodology
Turnover Number: TON = moles of desired product / moles of active catalyst. Turnover Frequency: TOF = TON / reaction time (h^-1). TOF (s^-1) = TOF (h^-1) / 3600. TON measures durability/productivity; TOF measures kinetic velocity.
