Abstract
This two part review looks at the uses of phosphate based heterogeneous catalysts for a range of synthetic organic reactions. Many different phosphates are known and have been tested as catalysts in a wide range of reaction types, either as catalysts, or in combination with other species such as zinc chloride or KF. The first section deals with the wide variety of phosphates which have been utilized in organic chemistry, while the second focuses more tightly on catalysts derived from naturally occurring phosphates. In all cases, efficient reactions can be achieved and in many reactions, significant solvent effects have been noted. Of benefit is the fact that relatively benign solvents such as lower alcohols and water are often the most effective.
Keywords: Metal aluminophosphate, amorphous aluminophospates, Zirconium Phosphate, Oxynitrides, Apatites

Advances of Heterocyclic Chemistry with Pesticide Activity
Global food safety and security will continue to be a global concern for the next 50 years and beyond. Plant diseases have had a significant impact on food safety and security throughout the entire food chain, from primary production to consumption. While conventional chemical pesticides have been traditionally used for ...read more
Calculation design of covalent/metal organic framework based catalysts
This research area combines theoretical computation and screening with machine learning for the design of covalent/metal organic framework-based catalysts, bridging the disciplines of organic chemistry, physical chemistry, computational chemistry, materials science, and machine learning. It covers several critical aspects: designing and synthesizing organic catalysts for improved performance, applying computational methods ...read more
Carbohydrates conversion in biofuels and bioproducts
Biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, and saccharification of carbohydrates, and sugars bioconversion in biofuels and bioproducts within a biorefinery framework. Carbohydrates derived from woody biomass, agricultural wastes, algae, sewage sludge, or any other lignocellulosic feedstock are included in this issue. Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
