Transition metal catalysts play an important role for synthesis of industrially and laboratory importantorganic fine chemicals to control the selectivity, activity and stability. In this review, we focus onmainly transition metal based supported catalyst, mainly oxide supported catalyst for heterogeneouscatalytic hydrogenation and oxidation of some synthetically important organic molecules. First wediscuss the industrially important catalytic organic synthetic reactions. This is followed by the role ofsupported metal catalysts in the heterogeneous synthetic catalytic reactions with specific attention tohydrogenation and oxidation of organic molecules. The role of base metals and noble metals inmonometallic and bimetallic catalysts are then discussed. Some synthetic routes for preparation ofoxide supported metal catalysts are also discussed. Finally, a general discussion of the metal-supportinteraction (MSI) in oxide supported metal catalysts is made.
