The chemistry of vanadium has seen remarkable activity in the past 50 years. In the present
review, reactions catalyzed by homogeneous and supported vanadium complexes from …

Four seemingly simple transformations related to the chemistry of methane will be
addressed from mechanistic and conceptual points of view: 1) metal‐mediated …

Trends in electrocatalytic activity of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are investigated on
the basis of a large database of HO* and HOO* adsorption energies on oxide surfaces. The …

The effect of the suppport on oxidative dehydrogenation activity for vanadia/ceria systems is
examined for the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde by use of well-defined VO x/CeO2 …

Density functional theory is used for periodic models of monomeric vanadia species
deposited on the CeO2 (111) surface to study dissociative adsorption of methanol and its …

Single crystalline h-MoO3 nano-and microrods were successfully synthesized using
modified liquid-phase processes with concentrated HNO3 and H2SO4. Their X-ray powder …

Konzeptionelle Überlegungen zu und mechanistische Aspekte von vier scheinbar einfachen
chemischen Umsetzungen, die in der Chemie von Methan von Bedeutung sind, werden in …

The selective oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde is a growing million-dollar industry, and
has been commercial for close to a century. The Formox process, which is the largest …

This paper describes the design and application of V 2 O 5–MoO 3/Al 2 O 3 catalysts for the
selective oxidation of methanol to dimethoxymethane (DMM). The V 2 O 5–MoO 3/Al 2 O 3 …

Ceria (CeO 2) is the most significant of the oxides of rare-earth elements in industrial
catalysis with its reducibility being essential to its functionality in catalytic applications. The …
