A small business initiative has resulted in the discovery of MCAT-53 which is a recyclable ruthenium formato catalyst that can effect C-H activated C-C coupling in water.MCAT-53 achieves C–H-activated C–C coupling in water under ligand-free conditions, requiring no co-solvent, surfactant, or additional steps for activation.<br/><br/>MCAT-53 is an important milestone towards achieving minimum waste API/API intermediate synthesis.
