Abstract:Selective oxidation of higher alcohols to carbonyls is one of the most important chemical transformations in research and industrial chemistry. Gas phase selective oxidation of alcohols with air as oxidant is a "green chemistry" synthesis path, although it is a great challenge to maintain high conversion with high selectivity. In this work, we synthesized nanorod-like Mo-VO x catalysts through regulation of the Mo/V ratio via a solid-state reaction method, and the group of Mo promoted VO x catalysts exhibited … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
