Abstract

Selective metal-promoted CÀC bond cleavage under mild reaction conditions presents one of the most challenging and attractive processes [1] because: 1) it enables the straightforward utilization of hydrocarbons in organic synthesis; 2) polymers, which are not biodegradable and produce a large amount of environmental pollution, may be degraded and reused by chemical CÀC bond cleavage; 3) the liquefaction of biomass and coal ...
