Biocatalysis holds immense potential for pharmaceutical development as it enables synthetic routes to various chiral building blocks with unparalleled selectivity. Therein, solvent and water use account for a large ...

Sugar (fatty acid) esters are industrially relevant compounds, with a cumbersome production process due to the solubility issues of the substrates, which forces the use of environmentally unfriendly reaction media. Herein, ...

The valorization of lignin-derived feedstocks by catalytic means enables their defunctionalization and upgrading to valuable products. However, the development of productive, safe, and low-waste processes remains challenging. ...
