Catalyzed Henry Reaction by Compartmentalized Copper‐Pyrazolyl‐Complex Modified Microgels
Pyrazolyl‐modified microgels are synthesized and loaded with copper. The copper complex formation and content are determined. Based on these results, the microgels are used as catalysts to perform several Henry reactions. These results show that microgel catalysts can be re‐loaded, reactivated, and re‐used in industrially relevant reactions and systems,
