Synthesis of Dicarboxylic Acids from Aqueous Solutions of Diols with Hydrogen Evolution Catalyzed by an Iridium Complex

Invited for this month′s cover is the group of Prof. Ken‐ichi Fujita at Kyoto University, Japan. The image shows an ordinary bird that has been transformed into a phoenix, which we metaphorically compare to the conversion of readily available diols to industrially important dicarboxylic acids. The C...

Description
Summary:Invited for this month′s cover is the group of Prof. Ken‐ichi Fujita at Kyoto University, Japan. The image shows an ordinary bird that has been transformed into a phoenix, which we metaphorically compare to the conversion of readily available diols to industrially important dicarboxylic acids. The Communication itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.202001052. “…our new findings will contribute to the further development of a hydrogen economy.” This and more about the story behind the research that inspired the Cover image is presented in the Cover Profile. Read the full text of the corresponding research at 10.1002/cssc.202001052. View the Front Cover here: 10.1002/cssc.202001650.
