Abstract

Abstract: The front cover artwork for Issue 2/2017 is provided by a collaboration between Prof. Yong Jin Kim's group (KITECH), Prof. Yunho Lee's group (KAIST), and Korea University of Science and Technology (UST). The image shows that a robust and well‐defined Cesium Benzotriazolide can catalyze direct carboxylation of CO2 with various amines to produce corresponding disubstituted ureas in very high yield with highest TOF (344h −1 ) in the scope of carboxylation of amines. See the Communication itself at https://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.201601320 . Abstract : "Cesium benzotriazolide (Cs[BTd]) is found to be highly active for the carboxylation of amines with CO2, which is a key step in the production of disubstituted ureas" This and more about the story behind the research featured on the front cover can be found in this issue's Cover Profile.
