Abstract

Abstract: Invited for this month′s cover is the group of Prof. Bradley Williams at the University of Technology Sydney. The image depicts the manifold products that can be selected in transformations of glucose through manipulation of the Brønsted or Lewis acidity of the catalyst. The Full Paper itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.201900292 . Abstract : " Such transformations of glucose employing metal triflates afford a deeper insight into the overall role of the acid catalyst in the production of target platform molecules…" This and more about the story behind the research that inspired the Cover image is presented in the Cover Profile.
