Cuo@Ag as a highly active catalyst for the selective oxidation of trans-stilbene and alcohols

摘要

Uniform CuO@Ag nanowires were prepared by reduction of Cu(OAc)2 on the surface of Ag nanowires in ethylene glycol. This novel material shows outstanding catalytic activities in the epoxidation of trans-stilbene and the oxidation of alcohols under mild reaction conditions.
