The direct transformation of methane to methanol remains a significant challenge for
operation at a larger scale. Central to this challenge is the low reactivity of methane at …

The direct conversion of methane to methanol is very promising to achieve a decarbonized
future, but remains a great challenge. The electrochemical activation and partial oxidation of …

Methane, an abundant one-carbon (C 1) resource, is extensively used in the industrial
production of vital fuels and value-added chemicals. However, current industrial methane …

Activation of alkanes can be achieved with different types of catalysts, spanning over
enzymes, homogeneous and heterogeneous metal catalysts. Though a tremendous amount …

Methane, as an earth‐abundant C1 resource, is a greenhouse gas as well as a key building
block in the chemical industry. Electrochemical conversion of methane into fuels and …

The direct oxidation of methane to methanol is considered challenging due to the
intrinsically low reactivity of the C–H bond of methane and the formation of a large number of …

Sb (V) in strong Brønsted acid solvents is traditionally assumed to react with light alkanes
through superacid protonolysis, which results in carbocation intermediates, H2, and carbon …

The undesirable loss of methane (CH4) at remote locations welcomes approaches that
ambiently functionalize CH4 on‐site without intense infrastructure investment. Recently, we …

Although most class (b) transition metals have been studied in regard to CH4 activation,
divalent silver (AgII), possibly owing to its reactive nature, is the only class (b) high‐valent …

Selective and efficient electrochemical conversion of cheap and abundant biomass
derivatives into high‐value‐added products can provide a way to store large‐scale …
