Abstract
- The Front Cover shows the production of formic acid from CO2 and H2 by a ternary hybrid catalyst composed of an Ir complex, poly(ethyleneimine) and titanate nanotubes (TNTs).In their Full Paper, Y. Kuwahara et al. demonstrate that immobilization of a poly(ethyleneimine)‐tethered Ir complex catalyst inside the cavity space of TNTs can afford efficient catalysts with both improved activity and reusability, owing to the CO2 adsorption capacity of poly(ethyleneimine) and stabilizing effect of TNTs. This study can potentially offer a generalized method to capture and convert CO2, which is particularly desirable for sustainable formic acid production. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Y. Kuwahara et al. on page 1906 in Issue 11, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201700508). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
