High pressure-derived nonsymmetrical [Cu2O]2+ core for room-temperature methane hydroxylation

Description: The authors of the article report the high-pressure synthesis of a metastable nonsymmetrical dicopper-μ-oxo compound with exceptional reactivity toward the mono-oxygenation of aliphatic C─H bonds.
