Tin goes in : The solid Lewis acid Sn‐zeolite β is obtained in a simple and scalable procedure (see scheme). A high metal content can be obtained, without undesirable side‐effects. The space‐time‐yields of the resulting catalysis are over one order‐of‐magnitude larger than those of the state‐of‐the‐art materials for the Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone and the synthesis of ethyl lactate from the triose dihydroxyacetone.
