Gold supported on a mesoporous CeO2 matrix as an efficient catalyst in the selective aerobic oxidation of aldehydes in the liquid phase

Gold supported on CeO2 catalyses the selective aerobic oxidation of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes better than other reported catalysts such as Pt/C/Bi materials; the activity is due to the nanometric particle size of Au and CeO2.
