Abstract

Abstract: The front cover artwork for issue 17/2018 is provided by Prof. Ken‐ichi Fujita′s group from Kyoto University, Japan. The image shows the synthesis of acetic acid via dehydrogenation of a mixture of ethanol and water using a new iridium catalyst bearing a functional bipyridonate ligand with N, N‐dimethylamino substituents. See the Communication itself athttps://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.201800680 . Abstract : "An efficient system for the synthesis of acetic acid via dehydrogenation of an ethanol–water solution using a new iridium catalyst" This and more about the story behind the research featured on the front cover can be found in this issue's Cover Profile.
