Despite the progress of alternative/renewable energy technologies (solar, wind,
hydroelectric, geothermal, nuclear, hydrogen, bio, tidal and wave), still the fossil raw …

The decatungstate anion,[W10O32] 4–or DT, is a useful photocatalyst for organic
transformations involving C–H functionalization. Herein, we leverage the unique photoredox …

Conversion of methane to liquid oxygenates is challenging but of great value. Here, we
report the oxidation of methane (CH4) to methanol (CH3OH) assisted by nitrogen dioxide …

The iodine (III) bistriflamide complex (C6F5) IIII (NTf2) 2 in HNTf2 (bistriflimide
acid;(CF3SO2) 2NH) selectively aminates methane and ethane. At a 100° C reaction with …

The application of various density functional approximations (DFAs) and an emphasis on
popular methods without any consensus have prevailed in computational studies dedicated …

Carbocations play crucial roles during catalytic reactions by dictating the reaction pathways
and genuine mechanisms, but the instability of carbocations prevents thorough …

The oxidative functionalization of aromatic sp2 C–H bonds to C–O bonds is a difficult
transformation. For main-group metals, the oxyfunctionalization step of a metal-aryl bond is …

Photocatalysis has emerged as a promising approach for aerobic methane (CH4) oxidation,
but most current photocatalysts rely on metal centers. On the other hand, the excited states …
