Dawn of a new era? A base-metal single-atom catalyst for organic fine chemical synthesis

• Single-atom catalysts (SACs) hold the potential to combine the benefits of both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis. In this issue of Chem, Beller and co-workers demonstrate the selective insertion of transient copper carbenes into diverse X‒H (X = C, N, O, S) bonds with excellent functional-group tolerance by using a porous Al2O3-supported SAC.
