Abstract: 
Heterogenization of catalysts offers numerous advantages over homogeneous systems, including enhanced stability, reusability, and fine-tuning of properties. This approach is particularly relevant for developing environmentally friendly and sustainable catalytic processes. Microgels, with their unique properties, emerge as promising platforms for catalyst heterogenization. These crosslinked polymer networks exhibit tunable size, porosity, and responsiveness to external stimuli, making them ideal for encapsulating and stabilizing catalytic species. The integration of Se-containing functional groups into the microgel structure further enhances their catalytic potential, leveraging the redox properties of selenium for oxidation reactions. This bioinspired approach offers a novel route for catalyst design and contributes to the development of environmentally friendly and efficient processes.
