Epoxide deoxygenation : Hydrotalcite‐supported gold nanoparticles (Au/HT) efficiently catalyze the deoxygenation of epoxides to alkenes in water at room temperature under CO at atmospheric pressure and in the absence of organic solvents (see graphic). Moreover, Au/HT retains its activity and selectivity and can be reused.
