Monometallic Pd and Rh catalysts supported on N-doped mesoporous carbon (NMC), mesoporous carbon (MC), pristine and nitric acid treated activated carbons (AC and ACN) were synthesized and applied in the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol. Surface acido-basicity property of catalyst support was fo...
