Plasmon‐Driven Selective Oxidation of Aromatic Alcohols to Aldehydes in Water with Recyclable Pt/TiO₂ Nanocomposites

Abstract

Everything's gone green: The selective oxidation of aromatic alcohols to aldehydes has been achieved by use of a green energy source and solvent combination. Solar energy with a recyclable Pt/TiO2 photocatalyst in water at ambient temperature brought about the desired oxidation with high selectivity and relatively long-term stability.
