Abstract
Retraction of ‘Aqueous aerobic oxidation of alkyl arenes and alcohols catalyzed by copper(II) phthalocyanine supported on three-dimensional nitrogen-doped graphene at room temperature’ by Mojtaba Mahyari et al., Chem. Commun., 2014, 50, 7855–7857, https://doi.org/10.1039/C4CC01406E.
The Royal Society of Chemistry hereby wholly retracts this Chemical Communications article due to concerns with the reliability of the data.
There are repeating fragments in the XRD data in Fig. S4A and B, indicating that the data has been manipulated. There also appear to be gaps in the data in Fig. S4A, particularly in the 6–18 degrees 2θ range.
The authors are not able to provide their original data.
Given the significance of these concerns, the findings presented in this paper are no longer reliable.
The authors were informed about the retraction of the article but have not responded.
