Biomass oxidation : formyl C-H bond activation by the surface lattice oxygen of regenerative CuO nanoleaves
An integrated experimental and computational investigation reveals that surface lattice oxygen of copper oxide (CuO) nanoleaves activates the formyl C-H bond in glucose and incorporates itself into the glucose molecule to oxidize it to gluconic acid. The reduced CuO catalyst regains its structure, m...
