Heterogeneity of oxygen reactivity: key for selectivity of partial methanol oxidation on gold surfaces

Abstract

Recent evidence for low-temperature oxidation of methyl formate on Au(332) may affect the selectivity of gold catalysts during partial oxidation of methanol. Under isothermal conditions, overoxidation of methyl formate is significantly slower than methanol oxidation which can be attributed to special oxygen species required for overoxidation.
