Aerobic oxidation of C-H bonds to carboxylic acids enabled by decatungstate photocatalysis

Direct aerobic oxidation of p-xylene using cobalt, manganese and bromide ion catalyst system, named the Amoco method, is a fundamentally important process to produce terephthalic acid in industry. However, it still suffers from harsh conditions and potential environmental pollution. Herein, we discl...
