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

The chemical is used to make many everyday products from plastics and textiles to antifreeze and disinfectants.

One of us (Jim Barber) began the symposium by examining the natural photosynthetic system, describing the detailed understanding of the structure of the water-oxidation catalyst 2 of photosystem ...

Apart from carbon monoxide oxidation and acetylene hydrochlorination — the initial two reactions for which gold was discovered to be by far the best catalyst — gold is effective for other ...
