Of particular significance is the oxidation of unactivated alkanes, like methane and ethane, traditionally known for their stability and energy-intensive oxidation processes. By tailoring the ...

However, the selective oxidation of light alkanes remains a significant challenge. To date, scientists have explored various types of catalysts for this task. Although some offer decent ...

The rapid disappearance of the amber color of the bromine at room temperature is characteristic of reaction with alkenes. (colorless) (purple) (colorless ...

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 ...

and the necessity for large excesses of alkenes. There is also a long-standing challenge to achieving site- and enantioselective sp 3 C-H oxidation toward substrates bearing multiple similar C-H ...
