This conclusion is based on the following observations: (a) ethanol and °r y methanol were about equally reactive with the peroxidative system, but etha...

Aryl metabolite biosynthesis was studied in the white rot fungus Bjerkandera adusta cultivated in a liquid medium supplemented with L-phenylalanine. Aromatic compounds were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry following addition of labelled precursors ((14)C- and (13)C-labelled L-phenylalanine), which did not interfere with fungal metabolism. The major aromatic compounds identified ...

An efficient protocol for the selective oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes withH5IO6/V2O5 in ionic liquid [bmpy][PF6] has been developed. High yields of the products, mildreaction conditions and simple experimental procedure make this protocol complementary tothe existing methods. The catalyst can be reused for several times without obvious loss of thecatalytic activity.

Current catalysts for the alcohol oxidation in fuel cells (typically noble metals-based) are susceptible to poisoning with intermediates like CO. Hence we decided to find superseded catalysts for methanol oxidation based on incorporation of mixed oxides. In this research, a nano-size perovskite SrFeO3-δ (SrFeO3<su...

The aerobic oxidation of alcohols was efficiently completed in high conversion and selectivity using Cu3/2[PMo12O40]/SiO2 as catalyst under mild reaction condition. This reaction provides a new environmentally friendly rout to the conversion of alcoholic function to carbonyl groups.
