Switching acidity on manganese oxide catalyst with acetylacetones for selectivity-tunable amines oxidation

Exploiting the organic adsorbate-metal oxide interaction to optimize the catalytic properties of metal oxides has been rarely explored. Here, the authors use enolic acetylacetones to modify the surface Lewis acid properties of manganese oxide, enabling a rational control of the oxidation selectivity...
