Cover Feature: Porphyrins Anchored onto Colour Catcher®: Photoactive Material for the Conversion of Amines into Imines and Aldehydes into Carboxylic Acids (ChemistryEurope 1/2023)

The Cover Feature shows the utilization of porphyrins attached to Colour Catcher® in mediating the photooxidation of amines or aldehydes. This innovative approach harnesses the power of white light and molecular oxygen, enabling cost-effective, time-efficient, and energy-saving reactions. In addition, the chemical stability, recyclability, and biodegradability of the Colour Catcher®-based photoactive material align with the growing societal need for the eco-friendly production of fine chemicals.
