THE STUDIES OF THE MULTIROUTES MECHANISMSIN HOMOGENEOUS CATALYTIC PROCESSESTemkin O.N.Moscow State Academy of Fine Chemical Technology,Vernadsky Pr., 86, 119571, Moscow, Russia, E-mail: olegtemkin@mail.ruOP-I-2-specialIn this report the key problems and methods based on the Horiuti-Temkin theory of thestationary reaction kinetics, which are useful for mechanistic studies of the multiroutesreactions will be presented. The following questions are discussed:1. The physico – chemical and topological components of the «reaction mechanism»notion [1].2. The kinetic and bipartite graphs as a geometric image of the mechanism topologicalstructure [2].3. The multiroute mechanisms and the new rational strategy for kinetic model design [3].4. The multiroute mechanisms as characteristic feature of the reaction catalyzed withmetal complexes [4].5. The artificial creation of the multiroutes mechanisms and the conjugation knotsanalysis [3].6. The chain mechanisms and conjugated reactions in the real catalytic processes [5].7. The chain reaction schemes with autocatalysis and critical phenomena in the catalysiswith metal complexes [5, 6].Financial support of RFBR, grant № 07-03-00315.References1. O.N. Temkin, L.G. Bruk, D.
