Catalysis and the Mechanism of Methane Conversion to Chemicals: C-C and C-O Bonds Formation Using Heterogeneous, Homogenous, and Biological Catalysts

Overview

This book introduces various types of reactions to produce chemicals by the direct conversion of methane from the point of view of mechanistic and functional aspects. The chemicals produced from methane are aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons such as propylene and benzene, and methanol. These chemicals are created by using homogeneous catalysts, heterogeneous catalysts such as zeolites, and biocatalysts such as enzymes. Various examples of methane conversion reactions that are discussed have been chosen to illustrate how heterogeneous and homogenous catalysts and biocatalysts and/or their reaction environments control the formation of highly energetic species from methane contributing to C-C and C-O bond formation.

Table of Contents

Overview of direct methane conversion to chemicals with C–O and C–C bonds.- Selective production of methanol from methane and molecular oxygen at atmospheric temperature and pressure using methane monooxygenases.- Heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic partial oxidations of methane to methanol and its derivatives.- Application of biocatalysts for the production of methanol from methane.- C–C bond formation via the condensation of methane in the presence or absence of oxygen.- Conversion of methane to aromatic hydrocarbons.- C–C bond formation via carbocations in the methane conversion under non-oxidative conditions
