TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the resulting methanol incorporated a substantial fraction of gas-phase O2, suggesting that the controlled breakdown of H2O2 activates methane, which subsequently incorporates molecular oxygen through a radical process.

TL;DR: In this article, a 0.2 wt% Pt/TiO2 catalyst for the chemoselective hydrogenation of 3-nitrostyrene is presented, where the post-synthetic heat treatment procedure is combined with control over the metal loading.

TL;DR: A mixed oxide support containing Ce, Zr, and Al was synthesized using a physical grinding method and applied in the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane using CO2 as the oxidant as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: It is proposed that peripheral Au0* species form part of the active centers in the most active catalysts for the three gas-phase reactions, in contrast, the active sites for the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol are generally thought to be electronically modified gold atoms at the surface of the nanoparticles.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors show that separating the gold and palladium components in bimetallic carbon-supported catalysts can almost double the reaction rate compared with that achieved with the corresponding alloy catalyst.
