Historically, the know-how to synthesize and handle ionic liquids has been treated somehow like a holy grail . Up to the mid-1990s, indeed, only a small number of specialized industrial and academic research groups were able to prepare and...

Combining control over architecture with control over the stereochemistry of the propagation process remains a holy grail in the field of radical polymerization. Approaches to this end based on conventional polymerization were described in Chapter 8. The development of living polymerization processes has yet to substantially advance this cause.

The Holy Grail of catalysis has been to identify what Taylor described as the active site that is, that ensemble of atoms which is responsible for the surface reactions involved in catalytic turnover. With the advent of atomically resolving techniques such as scanning tunnelling microscopy it is now possible to identify reaction centres on planar surfaces. This gives a greater insight also into reaction kinetics and mechanisms in catalysis. In this paper two examples of such work are described, namely CO oxidation on a Rh(llO) crystal and methanol selective oxidation to formaldehyde on Cu(llO). 

K. Tani and Y. Kataoka, begin their discussion with an overview about the synthesis and isolation of such species. Many of them contain Ru, Os, Rh, Ir, Pd, or Pt and complexes with these metals appear also to be the most active catalysts. Their stoichiometric reactions, as well as the progress made in catalytic hydrations, hydroal-coxylations, and hydrocarboxylations of triple bond systems, i.e. nitriles and alkynes, is reviewed. However, as in catalytic hydroaminations the holy grail", the addition of O-H bonds across non-activated C=C double bonds under mild conditions has not been achieved yet. 

Although the work of ATCC and others has done much to ensure the reproducibility and even demonstrate some traceability of microbiological reference materials the development of microbiological Certified Reference Materials (CRMs), certified for number of viable life forms is seen as important for control analyses of water and food. Somewhat of a holy grail the development of such CRMs has long been hampered by the unstable concentration and insufficient homogeneity of viable organisms in the materials. 

This, at first glance innocuous-looking functional FHK[p] is the holy grail of density functional theory. If it were known exactly we would have solved the Schrodinger equation, not approximately, but exactly. And, since it is a universal functional completely independent of the system at hand, it applies equally well to the hydrogen atom as to gigantic molecules such as, say, DNA FHK[p] contains the functional for the kinetic energy T[p] and that for the electron-electron interaction, Eee[p], The explicit form of both these functionals lies unfortunately completely in the dark. However, from the latter we can extract at least the classical Coulomb part J[p], since that is already well known (recall Section 2.3),...
