10 Recent Advances in Organic Reactions Using Water as Solvent
A well-timed book that aims at sustainability in synthesis and production of chemicals. Details the different green solvents, their physiochemical properties, performance, and distinct applications. Presents a greener approach to replacing the conventional solvents by sustainable solvents by finding similarities in their reaction mechanisms. It also includes the technical, economic, and environmental aspects of these solvents showing how to maximize their reuse and recycling.
Xiao-Feng Wu was born in China. He studied chemistry in Zhejiang Sci-Tech University (China), where he got his bachelor?s degree in science (2007). In the same year, he went to Rennes 1 University (France) and earned his master?s degree in 2009. Then he joined Matthias Beller?s group in Leibniz-Institute for Catalysis (Germany), where he completed his PhD in January 2012. Subsequently he started his independent research at LIKAT and ZSTU. In March 2017, Xiao-Feng defended his Habilitation successfully from Rennes 1 University (France). Xiao-Feng has authored >420 publications in international journals, meanwhile he is also the editor or author of >10 books.
Zhiping Yin received his bachelor's degree in pharmacy from The Medical School of Hunan Normal University in 2012 and got his master's degree in medicinal chemistry from The West China School of Pharmacy of Sichuan University in 2015 under the supervision of Professor Zhenlei Song. In July 2019, he received the Ph.D. degree in Chemistry from the University of Rostock, Germany, under the supervision of Prof. Xiao-feng Wu. In January 2020, he joined the School of Pharmacy of Jiangsu University to carry out his independent research work. His current research focuses on homogeneous catalysis involving gaseous molecule CO and SO2, organic electrochemical synthesis.
Liang-Nian He received his Ph.D. from Nankai University in 1996 under the guidance of academician Ru-Yu Chen. He then worked as a Chinese postdoctoral fellow with academician Ren-Xi Zhuo at Wuhan University. He worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the National Institute of Advanced Science and Technology (Japan) from 1999 to 2003 before joining Nankai University in April of 2003. His research interests cover green chemistry, catalysis, and CO2 chemistry (CO2 activation and catalytic conversion into fuels/value-added chemicals; in situ transformation of CO2: combination of CO2 capture and subsequent conversion to chemicals and fuel-related products in a carbon neutral cycle), catalysis in green solvents and biomass conversion (castor-related energy), and green technology related to desulfurization.
Feng Wang received his BS degree at Zhengzhou University in 1999 and his PhD at Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2005. He joined the Organic Catalysis Group as an assistant professor in the same year. He later did postdoctoral research at the University of California-Berkeley and Hokkaido University-Catalysis Research Center. In 2009, he was promoted as a member of Hundred Talents program of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and began his independent research as the leader of the Bioenergy Chemical Group. He now serves as the vice director of Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, CAS and the director of the Biomass-Conversion and Bio-Energy division.
