A new catalytic transformation of saturated hydrocarbons involving carboncarbon bond cleavage and alumination is developed and investigated for the upcycling conversion of polyolefins into biodegradable fatty alcohols and fatty acids.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
