Abstract

Abstract : The Cover Feature shows that two types of zeolites (BEA* and MFI) were used as catalysts (saws) to respectively break the C−O and C−C bonds of lignin‐first monomers obtained from soft wood. The developed catalytic strategy provides a new approach to produce catechol from renewable feedstocks. More information can be found in the Research Article by X. Wu et al .
