Selective photocatalytic oxidation of aromatic alcohols to aldehydes in an aqueous suspension of gold nanoparticles supported on cerium(iv) oxide under irradiation of green light

Abstract

Gold nanoparticles supported on cerium(IV) oxide powder showing strong absorption at around 550 nm due to surface plasmon resonance oxidized aromatic alcohols to corresponding aldehydes almost quantitatively in an aqueous suspension under irradiation of green light.
