Direct catalytic hydroxylation of benzene under mild reaction conditions proceeded efficiently in the presence of a monocationic μ-nitrido-bridged iron phthalocyanine dimer with 16 peripheral methyl groups in an acetonitrile solution...
Photocatalytic benzene hydroxylation reaction using clean oxidant such as H2O2 is a green synthetic approach for phenol synthesis. Here, our study shows that the silylated iron vanadate (FeVO4) nanorods can...
Comparing to current commercial three-step production process involving low phenol yield, low atomic efficiency, and the formation of explosive intermediates. The direct oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbon to more desirable and...
