Abstract
Upgrading the value of raw materials by the selective conversion of organic molecules to oxygenated derivatives using air as an oxidant represents a worthy goal and challenge. Industrially, oxygenates are prepared at a rate of 109 to 1010 lbs/year, mostly using high temperature (above 100°C) processes.1 Since, in general, the oxygenated products are more reactive then the starting hydrocarbons, secondary reactions which lower the selectivity occur.
