Abstract

Abstract : A novel Co2 P/CN x composite is prepared using red‐phosphorous infused ZIF‐67 nanocubes as a precursor. For the first time, the newly formed cobalt–phosphide composite is shown to have excellent activity, selectivity, stability, and recyclability for the thermally driven hydrogenation of a variety of nitroarenes to anilines. More information can be found in the Communication by W. L. Queen, et al. onpage 4234 .
