TL;DR: A review of recent advances in mechanistic understanding of methanol catalytic technology can be found in this article, where the authors summarize the most recent advances and correlate these insights to practical aspects in terms of catalyst design and engineering.

TL;DR: Spectroscopic evidence is provided for the formation of surface acetate and methyl acetate, as well as dimethoxymethane during the MTO process, suggesting a direct mechanism may be operative, at least in the early stages of theMTO reaction.

TL;DR: This work demon-strate a generalized manganese-catalyzed oxidative azidation meth-odology of C(sp3)-H bonds using nucleophilic NaN3 as an azide source under electrophotocatalytic conditions and expects this synthetic protocol, consisting of metal catalysis, electrochemistry and photochemistry, would pro-vide a new sustainable option to execute challenging organic syn-thetic transformations.

TL;DR: The direct transformation of CO2 into high-value-added hydrocarbons (i.e., olefins and aromatics) has the potential to make a decisive impact in our society.

TL;DR: New mechanistic insights have been obtained from the MTH process, including the identification of hydrocarbon‐based co‐catalytic organic reaction centers and the formation of (olefinic and aromatic) HCP species, which are indeed derived exclusively from the direct C−C bond‐containing acetyl group of methyl acetate.
