Electrochemical Reoxidation Enables Continuous Methane-to-Methanol Catalysis with Aqueous Pt Salts

The direct conversion of methane to methanol would enable better utilization of abundant natural gas resources. In the presence of stoichiometric PtIV oxidants, PtII ions are capable of catalyzing this reaction in aqueous solutions at modest temperatures. Practical implementation of this chemistry r...
