Catalytic transformation of functionalized carboxylic acids using multifunctional rhenium complexes

Abstract Carboxylic acids (CAs) are one of the most ubiquitous and important chemical feedstocks available from biorenewable resources, CO2, and the petrochemical industry. Unfortunately, chemoselective catalytic transformations of CH n CO2H (n = 1–3) groups into other functionalities remain a signi...
