Description
Summary:The front cover artwork for issue 13/2018 is provided by the group of Beatriz Royo in ITQB (Portugal). The image shows a Portuguese caravel representing the Special Issue dedicated to the Portuguese Conference on Catalysis. The manganese‐based catalyst for the reduction of ketones to alcohols is represented by a black swan. See the Full Paper itself at https://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.201800241. “Air‐stable manganese complexes bearing N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) are highly efficient and selective catalysts for the reduction of ketones using the cheap and environmentally friendly polymethylhydrosiloxane.” This and more about the story behind the research featured on the front cover can be found in this issue's Cover Profile.
