Recent progress in the gas‐phase activation of methane is discussed. We demonstrate that
cluster size, charge state, and ligands crucially affect both the reactivity and selectivity of …

This review provides an overview and an update on how single-atom catalysis can be
achieved at a strictly molecular level by performing well-designed gas-phase experiments …

Identification and mechanistic study of thermal methane conversion mediated by gas‐phase
species is important for finding potentially useful routes for direct methane transformation …

We show how the powerful combination of temperature-dependent kinetics coupled with
detailed statistical modeling can be used to derive dynamical information about transition …

Accurate predictions of spin-state ordering, reaction energetics, and barrier heights are
critical for the computational discovery of open-shell transition-metal (TM) catalysts …

Gold in the+ III oxidation state (AuIII) has been proposed as a promising species to mediate
