bifunctional catalysis

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.B00642
@C00874-1@ (usually for @H02904@ transfer) by a bifunctional @CT01038@ involving a mechanism in which both @F02555@ are implicated in the @R05139@, so that the corresponding @C00885@ is larger than that expected for @C00874-2@ by chemical species containing only one of these functional groups. The term should not be used to describe the @C01234@ action of two different catalysts ('concerted @C00874-2@').
