By tailoring the copper(II)–alkylperoxo complex composition, the researchers achieved selective oxidation of unactivated alkanes, a pivotal advancement in catalytic science.

A study appearing in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences introduces a trimetallic catalyst—including nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) nanoparticles supported on defective ceria ...

This review summarizes the catalytic performance of various metal-based catalysts in the CO2-assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkanes, with the goal of identifying catalyst systems that ...

This reaction proceeds very slowly at room temperature. The addition of cobalt chloride as a catalyst produces a green cobalt-tartrate intermediate and copious evolution of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
