An overview of the latest edition of Angewandte Chemie

Angewandte Chemie 17/2011: A Good Catch

MOF Capsules
Hollow capsules of hybrid metal-organic frameworks (MOF) have selective permeability related directly to their micropore size

Selective Hydroformylation of Mixed Feedstocks
Industrial mixed C4 feedstocks can be hydroformylated selectively with a catalyst immobilized on a supported ionic liquid

Two Layers for Artificial Photosynthesis
Tandem catalysis by nanocrystals with two distinct metal–metal oxide interfaces could be used for artificial photosynthesis

Quicker Catalyst Optimization
General method for screening palladium-based cross-coupling reactions speeds up catalyst optimization

Solving the Material and Energy Challenges of the Future
Catalysts are used in the production of everything in our modern lives and will play a large role in our future

Death Metal!
Ruthenium complexes selectively target and kill cancer cells over healthy cells

Carbon Monoxide Powder
Way of generating CO from easy-to-handle powder could eliminate need for CO-detectors and high-pressure equipment

Cleaner Fuel with MOFs
Cleaner diesel and gasoline could be produced with metal–organic frameworks that remove nitrogen and sulfur contaminants
