TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce some general principles describing the fundamentals of the covalent anchoring and give an overview of the most important types of covalently anchored catalysts.
Abstract: Very frequently the most costly components in a chemical reaction are not the starting materials or the reaction products, but the catalyst. In addition to the advantages from the economic point of view, recovery and reuse of the catalyst is equally important in order to avoid wastes, so improving the greenness of the process. There is a current tendency to transform homogeneous into heterogeneous catalysis, that will even be accelerated in the near future. Starting from a successful homogeneous catalyst, one general methodology allowing its recovery and reuse is to immobilize a suitable derivative of the active catalyst on an insoluble solid support. When the catalyst does not deactivate and is sufficiently stable under the reaction conditions, the ultimate immobilization methodology is to attach covalently the catalytically active species to the support. In this contribution, after introducing some general principles describing the fundamentals of the covalent anchoring, the emphasis is placed more on giving an overview of the most important types of covalently anchored catalysts, including Bronsted and Lewis acids, covalently anchored bases and hydrogenation complexes. Hot topics such as silica-bound organocatalysts and the application of periodic mesoporous organosilicas as heterogeneous catalysts is also covered.

TL;DR: The objective of the present review is to give a global overview on the topic starting from those contributions published prior to the emergence of the BH concept to the most recent and current research under the term of BH catalysis.
Abstract: The borrowing hydrogen (BH) principle, also called hydrogen auto-transfer, is a powerful approach which combines transfer hydrogenation (avoiding the direct use of molecular hydrogen) with one or more intermediate reactions to synthesize more complex molecules without the need for tedious separation or isolation processes. The strategy which usually relies on three steps, (i) dehydrogenation, (ii) intermediate reaction, and (iii) hydrogenation, is an excellent and well-recognized process from the synthetic, economic, and environmental point of view. In this context, the objective of the present review is to give a global overview on the topic starting from those contributions published prior to the emergence of the BH concept to the most recent and current research under the term of BH catalysis. Two main subareas of the topic (homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis) have been identified, from which three subheadings based on the source of the electrophile (alkanes, alcohols, and amines) have been consid...

TL;DR: The different approaches currently being explored in order to achieve multifunctionality in SCO materials are discussed.
Abstract: This article reviews the most relevant chemical and structural aspects that influence the spin-crossover phenomenon (SCO). Special attention is focussed on the recent development of SCO coordination polymers. The different approaches currently being explored in order to achieve multifunctionality in SCO materials are discussed.
