In this critical review we examine the current state of our knowledge in respect of the nature of the active sites in copper containing zeolites for the selective conversion of methane to methanol. We consider the varied experimental evidence arising from the application of X-ray diffraction, and vibrational, electronic, and X-ray spectroscopies that exist, along with the results of theory. We aim to establish both what is known regarding these elusive materials and how they function, and also where gaps in our knowledge still exist, and offer suggestions and strategies as to how these might be closed such that the rational design of more effective and efficient materials of this type for the selective conversion of methane might proceed further.
在这篇批判性综述中，我们考察了关于含铜沸石中用于将甲烷选择性转化为甲醇的活性位点性质的现有知识状态。我们考虑了来自X射线衍射、振动光谱、电子光谱和X射线光谱应用的各种实验证据，以及理论结果。我们旨在确定关于这些难以捉摸的材料已知的信息及其作用方式，同时找出我们知识中的空白，并就如何填补这些空白提供建议和策略，以便能够进一步推进用于甲烷选择性转化的此类更有效材料的合理设计。
