Reductive amination article is commented on by MIT Professor

We were happy to read that professor of Chemical Engineering at MIT Yuriy Román-Leshkov recently discussed our newest reductive amination research article in a Highlight Preview article ‘Rational process design aids biomolecule-derived ethylene polyamine synthesis’. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.checat.2023.100639  

In this Preview, he describes our article as “a rich physical, intuitive understanding of the reaction network of ethylene polyamine production via the modeling and holistic synthesis of thermodynamic and kinetic handles hidden within process conditions.”

All these new reaction network insights and handles can be found in our article published in Chem Catalysis ‘How intermediate analysis inspires selectivity control for the catalytic reductive amination of carbohydrates toward ethylene polyamines’. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.checat.2023.100602
