Abstract

Conclusions In this work we have demonstrated that there are clear parallels between the heterogeneous and homogeneous chemistry of phosphomolybdate heteropolyanion systems. Surface intermediates that occur during a heterogeneous redox cycle in which methanol is oxidized have been isolated and compared to their stoichiometric counterparts by direct spectroscopic means. It has been established that the crucial intermediate is a ...
