Abstract

Correction for ‘One-shot carboxylation of microcrystalline cellulose in the presence of nitroxyl radicals and sodium periodate’ by Sergiu Coseri et al., RSC Adv., 2015, 5, 85889–85897.


The authors regret that the images presented for Fig. 1 and 3 in the original article present incorrect carbohydrate structures. The amended versions of these images, in which the 3-position hydroxyl groups are equatorial rather than axial, are presented below.
