Unravelling the role of AgCr interfacial synergistic effect in Ag/Cr2O3 nanostructured catalyst for the ammoxidation of toluene via low temperature activation of Csp3-H bond

An environmentally benign and cost-effective synthesis of benzonitrile is reported by direct oxidative cyanation of aromatic Csp3-H bonds of toluene over Ag(I)/Cr2O3 nanostructured catalyst. The catalyst was prepared by a hydrothermal route using cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide an...
