Abstract
The Front Cover illustrates symmetry (nature) and chirality (chemistry). Geometry, symmetry and chirality are definitions that are closely linked. In geometry, an object has symmetry if there is an operation or transformation that maps the object onto itself. In chemistry, a molecule (or ion) is called chiral if it is distinguishable from its mirror image. In their Review (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.202400019), A. Franco and E. Barath have summarized asymmetric hydrogenation reactions (of C<C═>C and C<C═>O double bonds) using heterogeneous metal catalysts.
期刊介绍:
With an impact factor of 4.495 (2018), ChemCatChem is one of the premier journals in the field of catalysis. The journal provides primary research papers and critical secondary information on heterogeneous, homogeneous and bio- and nanocatalysis. The journal is well placed to strengthen cross-communication within between these communities. Its authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories across the world. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies, and is supported by the German Catalysis Society.
