Investigation of the Reaction Pathways of Biomass‐Derived Oxygenate Conversion into Monoalcohols in Supercritical Methanol with CuMgAl‐Mixed‐Metal Oxide

Invited for this month's cover is the group of George Huber at the University of Wisconsin‐Madison. The cover picture shows the chemical intermediates and final products for the catalytic conversion of wood into C2–C6 alcohols over a CuMgAl oxide catalyst in methanol. The Full Paper itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.201801816. “This pathway is very unlike any other…” This and more about the story behind the research that inspired the Cover image is presented in the Cover Profile.
