Low temperature oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid using gold-based catalysts

Over the past decades it has become clear that gold supported nanoparticles are surprisingly active and selective catalysts for several green oxidation reactions of oxygen-containing hydrocarbons, in particular alcohols using molecular oxygen as the stoichiometric oxidant. In this research, etha...
