High-Yield Liquid-Phase Oxygenation of Methane with Hydrogen-Peroxide Catalyzed by 12-Molybdovanadophosphoric Acid Catalyst Precursor

Seki Y, Mizuno N, Misono M

The title reaction was most efficiently catalyzed by H4PVMo11O40 catalyst precursor in (CF3CO)(2)O solvent at 353 K. A conversion to the oxygenates such as methylformate and formic acid of 33.0% was achieved.
