Abstract

The importance of selective oxidation for the progress of green/sustainable chemistry is pointed out and the state of the art of heterogeneous selective oxidation of alkanes described, taking for examples the selective oxidations to form oxygenated products (1) of isobutane catalyzed by heteropoly-based mixed oxides and (2) of n-butane to maleic anhydride catalyzed by vanadium phosphorous mixed oxides. In addition, efforts necessary to bring about breakthroughs in this field are discussed.
