Invited for this month's cover are the Industrial Sustainable Chemistry group of Prof. Dr Gert-Jan M. Gruter and the Catalysis Engineering group of Dr. Raveendran Shiju at the University of Amsterdam. The image shows a full cycle from CO to polymers via several steps. The work reports the use of superbases in suitable environments to improve the formate coupling step by drastically lowering the reaction temperature and times whilst achieving higher yields. The Full Paper itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.202002725.
受邀为本月封面撰文的是阿姆斯特丹大学的杰特-扬·M·格鲁特(Gert-Jan M. Gruter)教授的工业可持续化学组和拉文德兰·希朱(Raveendran Shiju)博士的催化工程组。该图片展示了一个从 CO 到聚合物的完整循环,通过几个步骤。该工作报告了在合适的环境中使用超碱以通过大大降低反应温度和时间来提高甲酸盐偶联步骤,同时获得更高的产率。全文可在 10.1002/cssc.202002725 上查阅。
