Abstract
New cyclodextrin‐based systems have recently been developed for aqueous organometallic catalysis. Through this review, the major advances made in the field are commented upon and discussed. The role of cyclodextrins as mass transfer promoters, molecular platforms, building blocks for the formation of Pickering emulsions and thermoresponsive catalytic systems is especially emphasized. The catalytic performances of these cyclodextrin‐based catalytic systems are highlighted in two model reactions, namely the rhodium‐catalysed hydroformylation of terminal olefins and the palladium‐catalysed cleavage of allyl carbonates (Tsuji–Trost reaction).
