Supported Gold Nanoparticles as Catalysts for the Oxidation of Alcohols and Alkanes

Supporting gold nanoparticles have shown to be extremely active for many industrially important reactions, including oxidations. Two representative examples are the oxidation of alcohols and alkanes, that are substrates of industrial interest, but whose oxidation is still challenging. This review de...
