Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Green catalytic boat</bold> The cover picture shows the eco‐friendly synthesis of diphenylmethane by using a gallosilicate with a 3 D porous structure. In their Full Paper on <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">p. 1863 ff., </ext-link> C. Anand, A. Vinu et al. demonstrate the role of gallium in the KIT‐6 molecular sieves on the Friedel–Crafts alkylation of aromatics. The prepared highly stable and recyclable catalyst shows a high activity even at reaction temperatures as low as 313 K with a high benzylchloride conversion and diphenylmethane selectivity.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg22f4zh66" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
