“…[88][89] The introduction of single atoms typically induces modifications in the surface electronic structure of the material owing to differences in electronegativity, consequently influencing the adsorption behavior of reaction intermediates and ultimately impacting product selectivity. [90][91] Au single atoms were immobilized on black phosphorus nanosheets (Au 1 /BP) by Luo et al [76] Under light irradiation, methane was selectively converted to methanol in the presence of water with an exceptional selectivity exceeding 99 %. This exceptional performance can be attributed to the stabilizing effect of Au atoms on •CH 3 intermediates, thereby preventing deep dehydrogenation.…”

Methane, a main component of natural gas, shale gas, and combustible ice, is widely distributed in nature. The direct conversion and efficient utilization of methane have become crucial topics within the scientific community. However, two main challenges persist in this field: methane activation and overoxidation inhibition. Recently, research on this subject has reached its pinnacle stage. Herein, we present some works addressing these concerns, particularly employing photocatalytic approaches, and with a specific focus on strategies aimed at enhancing the selectivity towards methanol as the desired product. Finally, we discuss the existing challenges and propose potential solutions for advancing direct methane‐to‐methanol conversion technology.
