CAS: highly efficient oxidation of methane at room temperature

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.checat.2022.07.025

A team around Deng Dehui at CAS Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, has prepared two-dimensional Ru nanosheets with lattice-limited Cu atoms, which could catalyze the highly selective conversion of methane and hydrogen peroxide to C1 oxygenated compounds at room temperature with a generation rate of up to 1533 mmol g-1Cu(surf.) h-1 and a selectivity of more than 99%
