Recently, a team of Prof. Lan Yu from the School of Chemical and Molecular Engineering of ZZU published an overview article entitled “Mechanistic view of Ru-catalyzed C / C H bond activation and functionalization: computational advances” in Chemical Society Reviews, a leading international academic journal, which was selecｔed as the cover paper of the journal. ZZU is the first corresonding author unit of this paper.

The paper systematically describes the activation mode and reaction mechanism of ruthenium on C-H bond, which is of great reference value for researchers in synthetic chemistry, pharmaceutical chemistry, material chemistry and other related fields to design new ruthenium catalysts and ligands. （translator Song Gencheng）
