Kinetically Balanced Relay Catalysis for Efficient Oxidation of Methane to Methanol with O2

Selective oxidation of methane to methanol using molecular oxygen (O2) is a promising route for upgrading abundant methane resources, but is limited by the difficulty of coupling O2 activation with selective C–H functionalization. Herein, we report a relay catalysis strategy that spatially separates CO-assisted O2 ac...
