Homogeneous catalytic reactions moderate chemical reaction

To date, the composition of active sites is known for many enzymes, the most probable action mechanisms are suggested, and comparison data exist on catalytic group properties in enzymes and free molecules in solutions. Note also that the chemical composition of catalytic active sites of enzymes is independent of the presence of any specific compounds. Moreover, the majority of them are the well-known compounds for homogeneous catalysis histidine imidazole, carboxylic groups of aspartic and aminoglutaric acids, flavins, hemins, etc. However, as homogeneous catalysts, they possess rather moderate or even poor catalytic activity in appropriate reactions.
