Cover Feature: Decarboxylation of Hydroxybenzoic Acids to Phenol Via Deep Eutectic Solvents (ChemSusChem 23/2024)
The Cover Feature shows a sustainable method for producing phenol through the deep eutectic solvent (DES)-mediated decarboxylation of hydroxybenzoic acids. Choline chloride–urea DES acts as both solvent and catalyst, achieving a high phenol conversion. The process enhances environmental sustainability by avoiding harsh conditions, thus demonstrating the potential of DESs in green chemical manufacturing.
