Cluster Preface: Catalysis Using Sustainable Metals – Part II

Abstract

The discovery of new catalytic reactions involving the use of abundant, inexpensive, and sustainable metal complexes has enjoyed a resurgence of activities in recent years. This Cluster, the second of a two-part series, continues the update of this important field, communicating a variety of approaches that address this important challenge.

Key words

sustainable metal - catalysis - cycloaddition - aminoxylation - dimerization - quinolone - S-arylation - biomass conversion
