Surface Science and the Advancement of Direct Olefin Epoxidation A Perspective on the Article, ‘‘Partial Oxidation of Higher Olefins on Ag(111) and Ag(110): Conversion of Styrene to Styrene Oxide, Benzene, and Benzoic Acid’’, by Andreas Klust and Robert J. Madix.

Journal Article · · Surface Science, 600(23):5021-5023

The research described in this product was performed in part in the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, a national scientific user facility sponsored by the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research and located at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Few reactions are as conceptually simple or as devilishly difficult as the epoxidation of ethylene to form ethylene oxide:
