Atomic-level insights in optimizing reaction paths for hydroformylation reaction over Rh/CoO single-atom catalyst

Despite the advantages of using heterogeneous catalysts, most successful rhodium hydrogenations are carried out with homogeneous catalysts. Here the authors report a supported single atom rhodium catalyst providing high activities and selectivities for propene hydroformylation.
