Carrier enabled catalytic reaction cascades.
Catalytic cascade reactions increase atom efficiency and help to reduce waste. Therefore they have recently attracted considerable attention. When performing them we have experienced that the immobilisation of the catalyst and the nature of the support are crucial factors. The carriers can play various roles from facilitating filtration and compartmentalisation to specifically binding unwanted compounds in the reaction media. In this Feature Article we give an overview of our work on such carrier dependent cascade reactions.
