CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory [CSIR-NCL]: This technology involves a modified silica-supported bimetallic catalyst (M1M2-mod-SiO2) designed for the partial oxidation of substrates, converting them into value-added products like alcohols or acids under ambient conditions. The catalyst uses hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant, either in solution or generated in situ. The innovation offers a more efficient and environmentally friendly approach to producing valuable chemicals under mild conditions, making it applicable in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
