Abstract
Through selected recent examples, we show that a new class of catalysts — hybrid chemoenzymatic heterogeneous catalysts — is currently emerging. These multifunctional solid materials have a bright forecast for the development of green and sustainable chemistry. By combining the actions of a solid chemical catalyst and that of an enzyme, these formulations can catalyze multiple reactions in one pot thereby merging the best of two worlds: robustness and recyclability of heterogeneous catalysts on the one hand and outstanding selectivity and specificity of biocatalysts on the other hand. The preparation of such hybrid materials, however, represents a multidisciplinary challenge for catalysis scientists and materials chemists.
