Over the past two decades, sustainability has become a cornerstone in conversations across politics, society, and science. The pressing challenge of our time is to produce high-quality goods while minimizing waste and reducing energy consumption. This issue becomes even more critical when we factor in the growing global population and dwindling fossil fuel reserves.
In the realm of chemistry, sustainability is defined through efficient, low-waste chemical processes and the strategic use of catalysts to lower energy demands. While many catalytic reactions align with the principles of sustainable transformation at a broader scale, they often fall short on a deeper level. The high cost of catalysts—usually based on transition metals—and their ligands, along with their inherent toxicity, can undermine the very criteria they aim to meet.
